Additional Notes on the Management Interface
Under SSL VPN Portal in the navigation menu, the Launch Portal option opens an SSL VPN
portal window for users. This allows the administrator to view the portal as an end user will
see it.
In addition to the online help provided with each menu, you can access NETGEAR Web
Support by clicking the KnowledgeBase link or the Documentation link under Web Support on
the navigation menu.
A Logout option at the bottom of the navigation menu terminates the management session and
redisplays the Login window. If you click the Logout link, you must log in again in order to
manage the SSL VPN Concentrator.
If another administrator logs in to the SSL VPN Concentrator while you are logged in, you
will be logged out.
The SSL VPN Concentrator management interface also includes System status, event logging,
and log settings configuration pages (described in
Chapter 8, “Monitoring and Logging”
).

Active Users
The Active Users screen displays the active users and administrators logged into the SSL VPN
portal.
To view the Active Users log file, click Active Users
under the Monitoring menu in the left
navigation pane.
The Active Users window displays the current users or administrators logged into the SSL VPN
Portal or the SSL VPN Concentrator administrative interface. Each entry displays the name of the
user, the group in which the user belongs, the IP address of the user and a time stamp indicating
when the user logged in.
A user will continue to appear in the Active Users table until the user manually logs out of the SSL
VPN Portal or until an inactivity timeout occurs. Consequently, some users may appear in the
Active Users table for several minutes after they have closed their browser windows.
An administrator may terminate a user session and log the user out by clicking the Delete link in
the Logout
column adjacent to the user.
