Aurorean Client Installation Kits

To reduce the challenges of remote access, Enterasys Networks designed
Aurorean Client to be embedded with critical access information when it is
first installed. Because this information is already present when the remote
user tries to connect, the connection occurs quickly and with less chance of
error. You are responsible for configuring this information to match your
Aurorean Virtual Network requirements, building Aurorean Client
installation kits that contain the customized information, and distributing
these kits to your remote users.

You must build a Aurorean Client installation kit for each client group
defined in the Aurorean Policy Server database. An Aurorean Client
installation kit contains the following components:

H The Aurorean Client application.
H POP packages, which contain POP phone numbers for the ISPs you

selected, as well as any direct dial-up corporate ISP phone numbers.

H A set of core files that contain the following:

The policies assigned to that particular client group. These

policies determine which Aurorean Client features and functions

users can exercise.

Destination IP address for the Aurorean Network Gateway you

want members of that group to access.

The Aurorean VPN name shared by the Network Gateway and

Policy servers, and all Aurorean Client computers that connect to

your network.

Figure 67 illustrates the contents of a Aurorean Client installation kit.

When you build your first Aurorean Client installation kit, you must perform
a complete build. During the two-step build process, the Aurorean Policy
Server first extracts POP phone numbers from the master TollSaver database
to build a custom database for a POP package and its associated ISPs. If you
are using several ISPs or an ISP with POPs nationwide, this POP package
build may take a few hours to complete.

In the second step of the build process, a group kit which includes core files
containing tunnel, destination, and configuration, is compiled. Compiling
this build does not take as long.
