To use smart tunnels, you must have the following:
â¢A browser with either ActiveX or Java and JavaScript.
â¢32-bit operating system only (you cannot use 32-bit applications on a 64-bit OS).
â¢Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, or Vista. For Vista, if you are starting smart tunnels from Internet Explorer protected mode, the security appliance must be in the trusted zone.
â¢If you need a proxy to reach the security appliance, only basic authentication is supported. Also, the remote end (the private side, not the security appliance) must be in the excluded list (or you must configure the application to reach the remote end by its normal address rather than the proxy address).
