The following table shows the modes in which this feature is available:
Encoding
This window lets you view or specify the character encoding for Clientless SSL VPN portal pages.
Character encoding, also called “character coding” and “a character set,” is the pairing of raw data (such
as 0’s and 1’s) with characters to represent the data. The language determines the character encoding
method to use. Some languages use a single method, while others do not. Usually, the geographic region
determines the default encoding method used by the browser, but the remote user can change it. The
browser can also detect the encoding specified on the page, and render the document accordingly.
The encoding attribute lets you specify the value of the character-encoding method used on the portal
page to ensure that the browser renders it properly, regardless of the region in which the user is using the
browser, and regardless of any changes made to the browser.
By default, the security appliance applies the “Global Encoding Type” to pages from Common Internet
File System servers. The mapping of CIFS servers to their appropriate character encoding, globally with
the “Global Encoding Type” attribute, and individually with the file-encoding exceptions displayed in
the table, provides for the accurate handling and display of CIFS pages when the proper rendering of
filenames or directory paths, as well as pages, is an issue.
Fields
• Global Encoding Type —This attribute determines the character encoding that all Clientless SSL
VPN portal pages inherit except for those from the CIFS servers listed in the table. You can type the

follows:
–
