22.2 Usage of the SSL-VPN interface
359
At the top of the page, an entry is available, where location of the demanded shared item
(so called UNC path) can be specified — for example:
\\server\folder\subfolder
All shared items in the domain can be browsed using a so called navigation tree on the
left. The navigation tree is linked to the entry (this means that in the entry, the path
associated with the selected item in the tree is displayed, and vice versa — if a path is
entered in the line, a corresponding item is selected in the tree).
Right under the navigation tree, actions available for the specified location (i.e. for the
selected item or folder) is provided. The basic functions provided by the SSL-VPN inter-
face are download of a selected file to the local host (the host where the user’s browser
is running) and uploading a file from the local host to a selected location in the remote
domain (the user must have write rights for the destination). Downloading or uploading
of more than one file or of entire folders is not possible.
For files, any standard functions, such as copying, renaming, moving and removals, are
still available. Files can be copied or moved within the frame of shared files in the
particular domain.
In a selected location, empty folders can be created and deleted. It is not possible to
move or copy folders.
Antivirus control
If at least one antivirus is enabled in WinRoute (see chapter 11), all files uploaded to
remote hosts are automatically scanned for viruses. For connection speed reasons, files
downloaded to local hosts from remote networks are not scanned by antiviruses (files
downloaded from private networks are considered as trustworthy).
Bookmarks
For quick access to frequently used network items, so called bookmarks can be cre-
ated. Bookmarks work on principles similar to the Favorites tool in Windows operating
systems.
Bookmarks can be created for currently selected location (i.e. for the path displayed in
the entry) and it is also possible to specify demanded UNC path by hand in the bookmark
definition section. It is recommended to label by a short unique name — this will help
you with the bookmarks maintenance, especially if more bookmarks are used. If the
name is not specified, the bookmark will be listed in the list of bookmarks under the
UNC path.
