Network Access - SSLVPN - client system proxy settings
Hi all,
I was wondering if someone could tell me whether the Network Access module (with the BigIP Edge Client) has support for changing the client's proxy settings.
The setup is as follows:
- standard Access Policy with logon page > radius auth > resource assign (network access)
If the client cannot find its proxy server (defined by a PAC file that is indicated by a URL preset in the browser), it will not open the logon page when he clicks connect in the bigip edge client as this page is loaded from the virtual server's IP. So if the edge client could be configured to override the proxy settings, it will be able to load this page.
The problem arises from the fact that the computers normally never leave the internal network and thus can always find the proxy file. If they leave the network and try to dialin, the not-finding-the-proxy-file will prevent them from opening any page whatsoever - including when the edge client wants to open the logon page - meaning they will never be able to connect to the VPN.
I know that for example Juniper SA can do this perfectly fine, and it seems like a basic feature to me, but I cannot find it anywhere. Is it missing or should I buy new glasses?
Kind regards,
Thomas
