Change User Settings

This topic applies to both ViPNet Coordinator and ViPNet Client.

The Administrator window allows you to customize user settings.

    Note: The user will still have the ability to right-click the icon in the notification area of their Windows taskbar and change their security level (levels 1, 2 or 3 only available) and computer locking mode.

  2. To prevent ViPNet [Monitor] from starting when the operating system is re-launched and to set the ViPNet driver security level to 5, tick the Do not secure IP traffic after computer restart check box. In this mode, encryption is turned off and all open traffic is allowed.

  4. To prevent the user from canceling the loading of ViPNet [Monitor] during operating system start up, tick the Obligatory ViPNet login at Windows start check box. The user will not be able to use the Cancel button or Close [x] icon in the password dialog box.
  5. To define how long ViPNet [Monitor] will wait for the user to use the keyboard or mouse before automatically locking the computer, type a time in the Specify the time of inactivity before the action text box. Note: The default value (0) disables automatic locking.
  6. To accept the changes, click the Apply button at the bottom of the window. To cancel the changes, click Revert.
