Networking: A Beginner's Guide
While many of these choices are important for companies, the mainstay of remote
access is letting remote users access e-mail and files stored on the network. SSL VPNs
provide web-based access to many different types of e-mail servers. They also include the
ability to manage files and directories through a web interface, such as the one shown in
Figure 10-9. In this example, the user can select files in the left pane and can then choose
to download, add to a download cart, view within the web browser, rename, or even
delete files. The user can also manage folders and upload new files. All file access follows
network permissions granted to the user that is logged in to the SSL VPN.
