New features and enhancements in version 4.0.10

Compatibility with SNS firewalls in version 4.3 LTSB

Compatibility of SN SSL VPN Client v4 with SNS firewalls in version 4.3 LTSB has been improved.

Updating SN SSL VPN Client from a 2.7 version

When SN SSL VPN Client is updated to version 4.0.10 or higher, the installation program of the new version now uninstalls previous versions until 2.7. Previously, it would manage the uninstallation of earlier versions until version 2.9.

As a reminder, when an address book from SN SSL VPN Client in version 2 or 3 is opened in version 4, its format will be automatically updated, and it can no longer be used with its original version. If necessary, you can keep a copy of the address book file in version 2 or 3 before updating SN SSL VPN Client to version 4.

Logs

SSL VPN connection logs are now persistent. As such, they are no longer created systematically after every time an SSL VPN tunnel is set up.

Windows proxy

Support reference 85994

By default, version 4.0.10 of SN SSL VPN Client in Automatic mode no longer uses the proxy configuration that is defined on the workstation to contact the SNS firewall in HTTPS, notably to download the VPN configuration. This change reverts to the previous behavior of version 3.2.

When you encounter connection issue, you can change this behavior by modifying the http_use_default_proxy and http_request_as_user values in the registry base under the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\StormshieldSSLVPNService\Parameters
