NimbostratusSDK 5.0 Samples against FP 6.0
My developers are looking at the SDK and having problems getting the Favorites to show after authentication. I decided to start from scratch and use only the samples on the SDK download and get the same error. This is how it is configured:
Open SDK Example with Microsoft IE 6 = AppTunJS.htm
Allow Active-X component
Host: / = demo.com/demo
Port: 443
Username: test
Userpassword: test
Click Login
Status gets last shows this before pop-up error:
Session: https://demo.com/vdesk/index.php3
Pop-up error:
---------------------------
Microsoft Internet Explorer

Cannot get list of favoritesCannot obtain list of favorites

OK

Firepass configuration:
Version 6.0 with HF8
Master Group: Demo_master
-Authentication=Local
-Resource: Demo_resource
Network Access Name: Netaccess
I ran HTTPWatch to see the transactions and notice two things:

blacksan_10396OK, I found out why Network Access was not working with the original SDK 5.0 samples and my configuration. It was trying to look for a APPTUNNEL instead of VPN in the code.
So to get Network Access, open code and perform a Find/Replace on APPTUNNEL for VPN. So now that works, I can move on. Next step is trying to figure out why Application Tunnels (Terminal/Static/Dynamic) does not work using the API.
Later, providing End-Point Inspection information like Anti-virus stuff to the F5 Firepass Controller from the API for Pre-Login/Protective Configuration (really doubt it but worth looking into). Or see if Pre-Login Inspection can detect the API like the Stand-alone client upon login.
