VPN (IPsec and SSL)
Creating an IPsec VPN between a branch office and headquarters
In this video, you're going to learn how to configure a secure IPsec VPN connection between two locations.
With a FortiGate at each location, properly configured, both locations' users will be able to securely access local addresses on the other location's internal network, without opening either network to wider access from the internet.
Remote access with SSL VPN
In this video, you're going to learn how to configure SSL-VPN to allow a remote user to safely connect to a FortiGate-protected network, while enforcing the FortiGate's security policies for this user.
An SSL-VPN tunnel allows users to remotely access a network or the internet, requiring their traffic to pass through the FortiGate unit and enforcing the use of antivirus software. It can grant extra security to remote users accessing the web, or allow employees to access a corporate network while working from home or travelling.
FortiGate Case Study - SSL VPN with Citrix and OWA
In this FortiGate case study, you will learn how to configure your SSL VPN setup to work with Citrix Networks and grant remote access to an Outlook Web email service on an internal network.
By configuring your FortiGate and the SSL VPN portal, you can make it easy to securely connect to internal network servers and services. Basic SSL VPN configuration is covered in the previous Cookbook Video.
IPsec VPN remote access for iOS
In this video, you're going to learn how to set up a VPN tunnel for users with iOS devices to securely access internal networks and the web.
Portable devices such as the iPad allow users to stay in touch with the office without actually being there. However, these devices can be vulnerable when they leave protected networks. IPsec VPN allows you to extend the protection of your safe internal network to these devices so users outside of the physical office remain virtually connected to the internal network.
