Default group properties
If the only group that is configured on the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway is the Default user group, all local
users receive the settings configured for this group. You can control access to the Default user group
settings by configuring additional groups on the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway and then restricting access
to the Default user group.
For example, two users are part of a group for contractors. They are allowed to connect to specific cor-
porate resources, such as an Exchange server and a file server. If they inherit the settings from the
Default group, you might have unintentionally configured these users to have access to resources that
are only for permanent employees.
You can allow or deny users to inherit the Default group settings in the user group properties. This check
box is not available for the Default group.

computer comes out of hibernate or standby, when the user switches to a different wireless network, or
when a connection is forcefully closed.
