Logging off a Remote Access VPN Site Logging off a Remote Access VPN Site You need to manually log off a VPN site, if it is a Remote Access VPN site configured for Manual Login. To log off a VPN site • In the VPN Login Status box, click Logout. All open tunnels from the NetDefend firewall to the VPN site are closed, and the VPN Login Status box closes. Note: Closing the browser or dismissing the VPN Login Status box will also terminate the VPN session within a short time. Installing a Certificate A digital certificate is a secure means of authenticating the NetDefend firewall to other Site-to-Site VPN Gateways. The certificate is issued by the Certificate Authority (CA) to entities such as gateways, users, or computers. The entity then uses the certificate to identify itself and provide verifiable information. For instance, the certificate includes the Distinguished Name (DN) (identifying information) of the entity, as well as the public key (information about itself). After two entities exchange and validate each other's certificates, they can begin encrypting information between themselves using the public keys in the certificates. The certificate also includes a fingerprint, a unique text used to identify the certificate. You can email your certificate's fingerprint to the remote user. Upon connecting to the NetDefend VPN Server for the first time, the entity should check that the VPN peer's fingerprint displayed in the SecuRemote VPN Client is identical to the fingerprint received.
