Network Connect is a software package from Juniper Networks that provides a Virtual Private Network (VPN) solution. The Network Connect (NC) provides a clientless VPN user experience, serving as an additional remote access mechanism to corporate resources using an IVE appliance. This feature supports all Internet-access modes including dial-up, broadband, and LAN scenarios from the client machine and works through client-side proxies and firewalls that allow SSL traffic over port 443. Network Connect takes all traffic to and from the client and transmits over the secure Network Connect tunnel. The only exception is for traffic initiated by other IVE-enabled features, such as Web browsing, file browsing, and telnet/SSH. If you do not want to enable other IVE features for certain users, create a user role for which only the Network Connect option is enabled and make sure that users mapped to this role are not also mapped to other roles that enable other IVE features. When Network Connect runs, the client effectively becomes a node on the remote (corporate) LAN and becomes invisible on the user’s local LAN. The IVE appliance serves as the DNS gateway for the client and knows nothing about the user’s LAN. Users may define static routes on their PCs to continue to access the local LAN while simultaneously connecting to the remote LAN. For security consideration, because the PC traffic goes through the Network Connect tunnel to internal corporate resources, make sure that other hosts within that user’s LAN cannot connect to the PC running Network Connect.

220 users of UpdateStar had Juniper Networks Network Connect installed last month.
