Preparation, Installation, and
Connection
WatchGuard
®
Mobile User VPN (MUVPN)
™
client uses Internet Protocol
Security (IPSec) to establish a secure connection over an unsecured
network from a remote computer to your protected network.
For example, the MUVPN client is installed on an employee’s computer,
on the road or working from home. The employee establishes a standard
Internet connection and activates the MUVPN client. The MUVPN client
then creates an encrypted tunnel to your trusted network, protected
behind a SOHO 6. The MUVPN client allows you to provide remote
access to your internal networks without compromising security.
ZoneAlarm
®
, a personal firewall software application, is included as an
optional feature with the MUVPN client to provide further security for
your end users.
The purpose of this guide is to assist users of the SOHO 6 to set up the
MUVPN client on an end-user’s remote computer and to explain the
features of the personal firewall.
