Connecting to the Remote Access Server for Subsequent Sessions (Pre-IKE Phase)

If the user has already downloaded Access Manager, the process for signing into the remote access server for subsequent sessions is as follows:

The user accesses the server.
The user launches the Access Manager client that is preinstalled on the computer (recommended). Alternatively, the user can access the server through the dynamic VPN URL (https://<serverhost>/dynamic-vpn). If the user chooses to use this method, however, the server downloads Access Manager to the user’s desktop—even if the client already exists. As part of this process, the remote access server prompts the user for a username and password, checks that the user has the proper install privileges, generates a new connection token, and downloads the setup client.
The client determines if an upgrade is required.
The client checks the client configuration version installed on the user’s computer. If a more recent version of the client is available, the client code either automatically upgrades the client software (if you have enabled the Force Upgrade option) or gives the user the option of upgrading (if you have not enabled the Force Upgrade option).

The user can initiate a secure VPN connection to the remote access server from Access Manager once it is successfully launched.
