Section 7 - VPN
SSL VPN
SSL VPN Policies can be created on a Global, Group, or User level. User level policies take precedence over Group
level policies, and Group level policies take precedence over Global policies. These policies can be applied to
a specific network resource, IP address, or IP ranges on the LAN, or to different SSL VPN services supported by
the switch. The
List of Available Policies
can be filtered based on whether it applies to a user, group, or all users
(global).
To add a SSL VPN policy, you must first assign it to a user, group, or make it global (i.e., applicable to all SSL VPN
users). If the policy is for a group, the available configured groups are shown in a drop-down menu and one
must be selected. Similarly, for a user-defined policy, a SSL VPN user must be chosen from the available list of
configured users.
The next step is to define the policy details. The policy name is a unique identifier for this rule. The policy can
be assigned to a specific Network Resource (details follow in the subsequent section), IP address, IP network,
or all devices on the LAN of the switch. Based on the selection of one of these four options, the appropriate
configuration fields are required (i.e., choosing the network resources from a list of defined resources, or defining
the IP addresses). For applying the policy to the addresses, port range/port number can be defined.
The final steps require the policy permission to be set to either permit or deny access to the selected addresses
or network resources. Also, the policy can be specified for one or all of the supported SSL VPN services (i.e., VPN
tunnel).
Once defined, the policy goes into effect immediately. The policy name, SSL service it applies to, destination
(network resource or IP addresses), and permission (deny/permit) is outlined in a list of configured policies for
the controller.
