Configuring clients with a configuration file

• X position
• Y position
• X size
• Y size
• View

The values for X position and Y position specify the beginning horizontal and vertical coordinates from which the window object is drawn on the screen. The value of X size sets the width of the window, and value of Y size sets its height. The value for View specifies which View menu selection to use: 1 for Tiles, 2 for Icons, or 3 for List.

• 0= data is not encrypted
• 2= DES data encryption
• 5= AES data encryption with a 128-bit key strength
• 6= AES data encryption with a 192-bit key strength
• 7= AES data encryption with a 256-bit key strength

• 1 = The SafeLinx Client automatically processes RADIUS, LDAP-bind, Certificate, and Change Password secondary authentication events. This value is the default.
• 0 = The SafeLinx Client ignores secondary authentication events.

• 1 = The SafeLinx Client continues with the Windows login after the first timeout or failed login attempt. This value is the default.
• 0 = The client GINA code waits to reattempt the SafeLinx Client logon instead of continuing with the Windows logon.

Prerequisite applications are configured in the Connection section of the artour.ini file.

Specifies an interval, in seconds, at which an LCP Echo packet is sent to the SafeLinx Server. It is useful when connected through an ISP that incorporates network address translation (NAT).

For IP networks, the default is 10. For all other networks, the default is 0.

When RequestTransportProfile=1, this entry is ignored.

The maximum amount of time that the SafeLinx Client waits for a wireless link protocol request to be sent and an acknowledgment to be received. This request and acknowledgment must occur before reconnecting is allowed. Measured in seconds. This parameter is used for TCP optimization. On unreliable networks where packets are frequently dropped, you might want to reduce this number to ensure that the requests are received.

For all networks except non-PPP (point-to-point protocol) IP connections, the default value is 15 seconds. For non-PPP (point-to-point protocol) IP connections, the value is 1 second.

When RequestTransportProfile=1, this entry is ignored.

Number of times to attempt sending a wireless link protocol request.

When RequestTransportProfile=1, this entry is ignored.

The amount of time, in seconds, that the SafeLinx Client waits for a response to wireless link protocol (WLP) requests before timing out. The WLP is used to start and maintain SafeLinx Client connections.

For new connections created with SafeLinx Client version 5, the default value for this setting is 30 for all networks except IP, which is 15.

When RequestTransportProfile=1, this entry is ignored.

0

Default local

1

A specific LAN or WiFi adapter

2

A RAS connection

3

Automatically connect (available only on Windows PocketPC devices)

ExcludeAdapters= 
IntelPRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection,
Sprint PCS Vision

Alternatively, this exclusion might also be configured as:ExcludeAdapters=Intel,Sprint

Which would exclude any adapters that start the characters Intel or Sprint.

This setting helps determine whether you are moving into or out of the coverage area of a network. If you are moving into coverage area, you might want to delay roaming from the network quickly. There might be a time when the status flips back and forth between active and inactive. This delay gives the network a chance to stabilize and establish the actual status. However, if you are moving out of a coverage area, you might want to roam from that network more quickly. Moving out of a coverage area is indicated by an inactive network status.

The default value is 0.

The value of this setting needs to be more than the value of the RoamFromWaitUnderThreshold setting.

The default value is 0.

Connectionless

Use UDP as a protocol to connect to the SafeLinx Server.

ConnectionOriented

Use HTTP as a protocol to connect to the SafeLinx Server.

ConnectionOrientedSecure

Use HTTPS as a protocol to connect to the SafeLinx Server

List of TCP ports, separated by spaces, from which to filter packets.

List of UDP ports, separated by spaces, from which to filter packets.

For migrated connections, the default value is 0. For new connections, the default value is 0 if only the UDP protocol is enabled. The value is 1 if HTTP, HTTPS, or both are selected in addition to the UDP protocol.

When RequestTransportProfile=0, then this value is used. When RequestTransportProfile=1 and the transport profile on the SafeLinx Server is set to negotiate the MTU, then this value is used. If transport profile is not set to negotiate the MTU, then the SafeLinx Server overrides it.
