  3. Windows 8 and 64-bit Internet Explorer Support WatchGuard Training The SSL device now fully supports the Windows 8 operating system (32-bit and 64-bit). 64-bit Internet Explorer is now supported with new ActiveX loaders for Assessment, Abolishment, and the Access Client. 3

  4. Outlook Anywhere Support WatchGuard Training With Microsoft Outlook Anywhere (also known as RPC over HTTP), end users with the Outlook client can get access to corporate email and calendars over the Internet from outside the corporate domain without having to log into a VPN. 4

  5. Outlook Anywhere Support WatchGuard Training The SSL device now supports Outlook Anywhere • The Exchange server does not need to be exposed externally. • The processing burden of SSL encryption/decryption is offloaded to the SSL device instead of the Exchange server. • Minimal impact on your current network topology. • Provides a web resource-based solution (no additional client) and has no impact to the end user Outlook experience. 5

  6. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training To enable Outlook Anywhere on your Exchange Server: • http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123542.aspx To enable Outlook Anywhere on the Outlook Client: • http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/use-outlook-anywhere-to-connect-to-your-exchange-server-without-vpn-HP010102444.aspx 6

  7. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create client definition for Outlook Anywhere • Select Manage System > Client Definition. • Add Client Definition. • uri=*/rpc/* 7

  8. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Define Client Access settings • Select Resource Access > Manage Global Resource Settings > Client Access • Enable these options: • The client does not support cookies • The client cannot authenticate using HTML or WML forms 8

  9. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create an OWA Web Resource • Create a path “rpc/” for Outlook Anywhere • “Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync” for ActiveSync Create an Authentication Method access rule • Outlook cannot select an authentication method, so you must determine the authentication method. • Apply the access rule on the “rpc/” path • If there is only one enabled Authentication Method, this step is not necessary. Enable SSO • Create an SSO for Outlook Anywhere • Apply on the “rpc/” path • Enable the Authentication Method to save login credentials for the SSO • Outlook Anywhere and ActiveSync can share one SSO, but OWA cannot because it requires Domain\User name as user name by default. 9

  10. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create a Listener (Optional) • This step is necessary only if you require separate services for Outlook Anywhere, ActiveSync, Outlook Web Access, and regular VPN access. • Import a certificate (Manage System > Certificates) 10

  11. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create a Listener (Optional) • Create a listener (Manage System > Device Settings) 11

  12. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create a Listener (Optional) • Apply NAT for the listener to the external Internet interface on your firewall 12

  13. Outlook Anywhere Support — Configuration WatchGuard Training Create a DNS name for device • Link the DNS name to the OWA Web Resource • In this example, the Access Point will load this web resource when the client request contains “owa2.watchguard.com” 13

  14. Nested Group Support WatchGuard Training The SSL device now correctly supports nested groups (a ‘child’ user group that belongs to another group) within directory services. Nested groups are now processed correctly when: • Access rules are applied • Viewed within reports • Viewed in the group display in the admin Web UI 14

  15. Access Client Settings Synchronization WatchGuard Training You can store and synchronize individual Access Client preferences, history, and favorite resources on the SSL device. Synchronization is enabled by default on the SSL device. On the SSL device, select User Management > Global User Account Settings, then select the new User Client Settings Sync tab. 15

  16. Access Client — Synchronization Settings • New Synchronization tab on the Access Client preferences page: • Sync Server — Enter or select your sync server, which is the address of the SSL device. • Enable automatic synchronization — Automatically perform a sync when you are connected to the SSL device through a VPN tunnel. • Synchronize Now — Perform a manual sync. If you are not connected to the SSL device through a VPN tunnel, you are prompted to authenticate. WatchGuard Training

  17. Favorites — Add Favorite for All New Users WatchGuard Training You can add favorites globally for new users, or for a specific user, that can be synchronized to their Access Client settings. To add favorites that will be synchronized to new users: • Click User Management > Global User Account Settings. • Select the User Client Settings Sync tab. • Click Add Favorite Resource. 17

  18. Favorites — Add Favorite for Specific User WatchGuard Training To manage favorites for a specific user: • Select User Management > User Accounts. • Select a specific user. • Select the Favorites tab. Click Add Favorite Resource. 18

  19. Access Client — History Menu WatchGuard Training When a user loads a tunnel successfully, the details of the tunnel configuration are automatically saved in the Access Client History. Users can easily open a recently accessed tunnel resource. The History menu can contain a maximum of 15 items. 19

  20. Optimized Assessment Scan WatchGuard Training Caches the results of assessment access rules to improve the efficiency of assessing connections where multiple access rules are applied globally or applied to many resources. To configure the behavior of assessment results caching: • Select Manage System > Assessment. • Select the General Settings tab. 20

  21. Optimized Assessment Scan WatchGuard Training These options are enabled when you create a corresponding assessment access rule, and enable you to collect and cache this information: • Windows • Process • Network • Anti-virus • Firewall • Anti-spyware If you remove the original access rules, these options remain enabled for caching purposes. Disable these options to improve client scanning efficiency during assessment when you no longer require these assessment options. 21

  22. Confirmation for Startup Commands WatchGuard Training A Confirm Command option has been added to the Startup tab of a tunnel resource. • When enabled, the end user is prompted to confirm the command before it is run. • If this option is disabled, the command is run automatically without confirmation. • By default, this option is enabled for all resource wizards except RDP Access and SSH Access, where the command text is not readable. 22

  23. DNS Suffix Assignment WatchGuard Training The DNS suffix for a connection is now always applied, even if an IP address assignment fails. The DNS suffix is assigned automatically if DNS forwarding is enabled in the advanced settings of the Tunnel resource. The DNS suffix is assigned based on your configured DNS Search Order field on the Manage System > Network Configuration page. 23

  24. Log File Rotation Deletion WatchGuard Training You can now configure how many log files to keep on the system before they are deleted. This prevents excessive log files from filling up your disk space. For each type of log, in the Log File Rotation section you can configure the Max Files in Rotation. The default is 90. 24
