Clientless Remote Access


Clientless remote access provides access to network applications and resources, regardless of location, without the need for desktop VPN client software. Using the ubiquity of SSL encryption available in Internet browsers, the Cisco ASA 5500 Series delivers clientless access to any Web-based application or resource, terminal services applications such as Citrix, and optimized Microsoft Outlook Web access and Lotus iNotes, as well as access to common thick-client applications like e-mail and calendering, instant messaging, FTP, Telnet, and SSH. Additionally, the superior content rewriting capabilities of the Cisco ASA 5500 Series help ensure reliable rendering of complex Web pages with Java, JavaScript, ActiveX, Flash, and other sophisticated content.
