Improves secure remote access and boosts client productivity around the clock
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for SonicWall NSv is configuring SSL VPN accounts and setting up remote access for VPNs.
As a specific example of how I use SonicWall NSv for VPNs or remote access, I download NetExtender for the client, then go into SonicWall and set up a user account using the WAN address for the login. I set up a username and password, and document the domain, configuring that on their NetExtender on the client side and logging them into SonicWall so they have access to the company shared drives.
What is most valuable?
One of the best features SonicWall NSv offers is the LDAP feature, where you can use the Active Directory account to use the NetExtender client-side login that integrates with Active Directory.
The LDAP integration with Active Directory has made my workflow much more efficient and easier to configure the VPNs, allowing me to set up for the user and log them into SonicWall.
SonicWall NSv has positively impacted my organization by allowing our customers to access data 24 hours, seven days a week, making it a wonderful feature for business continuity for our customers.
Since implementing SonicWall NSv, I have noticed increased productivity, allowing users to access secure data in the network through a VPN, a virtual private tunnel, enabling them to work from home.
