Configuring Interception Settings

As mentioned in the first chapter, when a TCP or a UDP application, like Telnet

or Microsoft Outlook, connects to a server in remote network, the client inter-

cepts the connection, secures it using SSL encryption, and redirects it to the

server through the secure SSL VPN tunnel. However, you might need to

change these settings. For instance, if you need to visit a Web site on the

Internet, you do not need to access resources on the remote intranet. Instead,

requests from your Web browser need to be diverted directly to the Internet.

To do this, you need to enable Split Tunneling. This feature allows the client to

divert requests, not meant for the remote network, to another appropriate

network. The following sections cover Split Tunneling and several other inter-

ception-related settings on the client.

client. When it is enabled, the client filters traffic on the basis of the IP address

of the destination network. the SSL VPN administrator can also configure the

client to filter traffic based on the destination port and the name of the appli-

cation that is attempting to connect to the remote network. Traffic meant for

the remote network is sent through the secure SSL VPN tunnel, and the rest of
