Network Connector
The Network Connector provides full, transparent access for users requiring general or more widespread network access. No configuration is
required on the client computer, the configuration is stored on the Barracuda SSL VPN. Authorized users can be provided with complete
TCP/UDP access to the entire network in a manner similar to what is provided by IPsec, including mounting drives, accessing network shares and
moving files, just as if they were physically inside the companies network.
Deployment
The Network Connector consists of two components:
A
component which needs to be enabled on the Barracuda SSL VPN to allow access by your designated users.
server-side
A
component that, when installed onto the remote system, connects to the server interfaces.
client-side
When a client connects to the Barracuda SSL VPN with the Network Connector, it is assigned a secondary IP address from the IP range defined
in the network connector resource configuration. The network connector uses the assigned secondary IP and the configured published routes to
determine which traffic to forward to the internal network. The default configuration is for the network connector to act as a split level VPN, only
routing traffic destined for the internal network through the tunnel. It is possible to change this behavior to route all traffic through the network
connector.

Network
IP Address
Barracuda SSL VPN. The IP addresses distributed by the Network
Connector to remote systems must be a subnet of the IP address range that
you assigned to the unit in the administrative interface. For example:
Barracuda SSL VPN IP configuration: 10.0.0.1 with netmask 255.255.255.0
Available: IPs for the Network Connector LANs: 10.0.0.2 - 10.0.0.254
