VPN section allows you to configure required IPSec, L2TP, PPTP VPN connections.
Network objects let you enhance security and optimize performance for devices behind the firewall. You can use these settings to configure physical ports, create virtual networks, and support Remote Ethernet Devices. Zones allow you to group interfaces and apply firewall rules to all member devices. Network redundancy and availability is provided by failover and load balancing. Other settings allow you to provide secure wireless broadband service to mobile devices and to configure advanced support for IPv6 device provisioning and traffic tunnelling.
This section provides options to configure both static and dynamic routes.
You can set up authentication using an internal user database or third-party authentication service. To authenticate themselves, users must have access to an authentication client. However, they can bypass the client if you add them as clientless users. The firewall also supports two-factor authentication, transparent authentication, and guest user access through a captive portal.
On this page you can manage databases and backend servers of external user authentication services. External user authentication allows you to validate user accounts against existing user databases or directory services on other servers of your network.
You can implement two-factor authentication using one-time passwords, also known as passcodes. Passcodes are generated by Sophos Authenticator on a mobile device or tablet without the need for an internet connection. When users log on, they must provide a password and a passcode.
Groups contain policies and settings that you can manage as a single unit. With groups, you can simplify policy management for users. For example, you may want to create a grouping of settings that specifies a surfing quota and limits the access time for guest users.
The User page displays the list of all the users added in the device.
The Import Users page allows you to add new users by importing user details from the file.
This page allows you to purge AD Users.
Clientless users are not required to authenticate using a client to access the internet. Instead, the firewall authenticates these users by matching a user name to an IP address.
Guest users are users who do not have an account and want to connect to your network in order to access the internet. You can add (register) guest users or allow them to register themselves through the guest user portal. Specify policies and settings as required.
