CHAPTER 42
SSL Application
42.1 Overview
You use SSL application objects in SSL VPN. Configure an SSL application object to specify
a service and a corresponding IP address of the server on the local network. You can apply one
or more SSL application objects in the VPN > SSL VPN screen for a user account/user group.
42.1.1 What You Can Do in the SSL Application Screens
Use the SSL Application screen (Section 42.2 on page 658) to view the ZyWALL’s
configured SSL application objects.
Use the SSL Application Edit screen to create or edit web-based application objects to
allow remote users to access an application via standard web browsers (Section 42.2.1 on
page 659).
You can also use the SSL Application Edit screen to specify the name of a folder on a
Linux or Windows file server which remote users can access using a standard web
browser (Section 42.2.2 on page 660).
42.1.2 What You Need to Know About SSL Application Objects
Application Types
You can configure the following types of SSL applications on the ZyWALL.
Web-based
A web-based application allows remote users to access an intranet site using standard web
browsers.
File sharing

Remote User Screen Links
Available SSL application names are displayed as links in remote user screens. Depending on
the application type, remote users can simply click the links or follow the steps in the pop-up
dialog box to access.
