Client Software
For VPN 3002 hardware clients, the upgrade proceeds automatically, with no notification.
You must check Enable Client Update in the window for the upgrade to work. Clients that are
not connected receive the upgrade notification or automatically upgrade the next time they log
on.
Modes
The following table shows the modes in which this feature is available:
Edit Client Update Entry
The Edit Client Update dialog box lets you change information about VPN client revisions and URLs
for the indicated client types. The clients must be running one of the revisions specified for the indicated
client type. If not, the clients are notified that an upgrade is required.
Fields
Client Type—(Display-only) Displays the client type selected for editing.
VPN Client Revisions—Lets you type a comma-separated list of software or firmware images
appropriate for this client. If the user’s client revision number matches one of the specified revision
numbers, there is no need to update the client. If the client is not running a software version on the
list, an update is in order. The user of a Windows, MAC OS X, or Linux-based VPN client must
download an appropriate software version from the listed URL. The VPN 3002 hardware client
software is automatically updated via TFTP.
Image URL—Lets you type the URL for the software/firmware image. This URL must point to a
file appropriate for this client.
For a Windows, MAC OS X, or Linux-based VPN client, the URL must include the protocol
HTTP or HTTPS and the server address of the site that contains the update. The format of the
URL is: http(s)://server_address:port/directory/filename. The server address can be either an IP
address or a hostname if you have configured a DNS server. For example:
http://10.10.99.70/vpnclient-win-4.6.Rel-k9.exe
The directory is optional. You need the port number only if you use ports other than 80 for HTTP
or 443 for HTTPS.
For the hardware client: The format of the URL is tftp://server_address/directory/filename. The
server address can be either an IP address or a hostname if you have configured a DNS server.
For example:
tftp://10.1.1.1/vpn3002-4.1.Rel-k9.bin
The directory is optional.
