With the external user portal, the administrator can allow individual or multiple users to have limited access to the firewall. This gives them the option to directly receive provided files or information. These may include the IPsec configuration required for the LANCOM Advanced VPN Client to establish a VPN connection to your LANCOM R&S®Unified Firewall.
The following steps are necessary for this:
- Create a certificate for access via HTTPS.Note: For the external portal, a certificate from a trustworthy certification authority is recommended!
- Create local users or configure access to a directory server (OpenLDAP or Microsoft Active Directory).
- Create an IPsec client-to-site connection.
- Configure the external portal under .
- Create a new profile under and assign the VPN connection to the users.
The users can then log in to the firewall using the configured address.
