Absolutely Secure VPN Gateway
=============================

It's the most secure way to connect

Connecting to secure systems over the Internet just got a whole lot safer and easier.

* Need to connect numerous service providers to different components on your network and keep total control ?
* Need to provide easy access to busy staff members when they are away from the office ?
* Want to have access to your home computer when your overseas ?
* Worried about SpyWare and maintaining security ?
* Looking for a VPN solution that is quick and easy to install ?

Stop looking ! This is the perfect solution
============================================
Secure VPN Gateway from TTC enables you to connect to applications and network services, secured behind a firewall, without compromising security.

At TTC we have developed a secure VPN system that is suitable for everyone to use. There is no tricky installation and no client configuration. The whole product is can be up and running within a few minutes of downloading. This save you time and allows you to get on with business.

The Secure VPN Gateway just requires a dhcp server to provide it with a network address. With this information it configures itself and tells you how to access the management web page.

The VPN client package learns everything directly from the Secure VPN Gateway. Once started, the person using the Secure VPN client, is presented with a menu of their available network services. Access is as simple as clicking a start button.

Our key to security.
====================
Our extreme security comes from individually coded client packages that are generated for each user by the Secure VPN Gateway. This builds unique digital keys directly into each client package. The built-in digital key improves security beyond that of many VPN clients because the user must have the correct client package (digital key), the correct login name, and the correct password. The digital key is never typed and all network communication is strongly encrypted, so “SpyWare” applications are unable to break the security. This is of vital importance for people who use public computers to access corporate or private resources.

The Secure VPN gateway is configured and managed from an administration web page where all account setup functions are performed. Administrators can create, edit, delete, and disconnect live users from this web page. Network link rules are defined and then allocated to user accounts. Network link rules provide a network description of the service that the user is connecting to. The rule definition allows the administrator to use their own words to describe the link rule making it easily adaptable to ever users level of understanding.
For example; “Bob's human resource files” or “Corporate internal e-mail server” rather than cryptic strings of numbers.

Help is only a click away
=========================
We have eliminated the most frustrating problem with downloaded software by putting all the documentation and access to the software developers right at your fingertips.

This is done through a free bulletin board where users can read and download documentation. They can also share their own experiences with using the software. Posting issues and solutions for all users to share. Access to the bulletin board is provided directly from the Secure VPN Client and the Administration web page.

How was it built
================
This VMware appliance has been built on top of the outstanding freeware firewall, Smoothwall Express. Written exclusively in Perl the TTC Secure VPN Gateway has been in development and testing for the past 24 months.
It was intended to run on a standalone server but thanks to the efficient VMPlayer from Vmware it can now be run under any environment where VMPlayer is supported. The most significant market breakthrough here is the ability to deploy it as an application on a Microsoft Windows system.
Vmware workstation has played a vital part in the development and testing of the TTC Secure VPN Gateway. We are delighted to be able to offer this application

How to get started
==================
Once you have installed VMPlayer and downloaded the zip file “TTC-VPN-Secure-Gateway.zip”, simply expand the zip file on the computer that will be hosting the VM-appliance.

Now start VMPlayer and open the VM appliance found under the TTC-VPN-Secure-Gateway directory.

The appliance will start automatically. When it is up and running a page of information will be displayed on the VMPlayer console. Press enter to make sure the information is up todate.

The information on the console will show you three important details:
1. The external IP address of the Secure VPN Gateway.
2. The port forwarding rule to configure on your firewall (if you have one) to enable the VPN clients to communication with the Secure VPN Gateway.
3. The URL for accessing the management web page.

For example:

Secure VPN Controller
======================
My external IP address is 192.168.1.184

If I am behind a firewall please set a port forwarding rule on the firewall as follows:
inbound TCP port ==> TCP port : IP address
2227 ==> 2227 : 192.168.1.184

Then access my web management interface and change the settings for the “external interface” to firewall's external IP address.

The URL for my web management interface is:
http://192.168.1.184:81/vpn_frame.html
======================

When you access the management web page you will be prompted to login.

The default user name is : administrator

The default password is : admin123
(This can be changed from the “Manage the users of this page” menu option.)

Note# The full documentation and online help is available by clicking on the words “Click here for help” at the top right of the screen.

After logging in to the web page as the administrator, use the menu on the left side of your screen and click on “Change settings”. Make sure that the “External IP” address is correct. If you will be accessing the Secure VPN Gateway through a firewall the “External IP” should be set to the IP address that reaches the firewall from the Internet. If you do not have a firewall then the “External IP” setting should be correct.

Now generate your first VPN Client kit by clicking on the Refresh keys icon for the administrator. And confirm that you want to proceed.

Now click on the red download symbol to receive a copy of the administrator VPN client kit.

Congratulations, this client kit can now be used to connect to Secure VPN controller from the Internet.

Now its time to “Click here for help” and download a copy of the Secure VPN documentation.

This will explain how to:
* Use the VPN client.
* Create VPN Link Rules
* Create user accounts
* Even how to change the logos to your own.

If you have any questions please post them on the bulletin board and we'll get the answers straight to you.
