What's New

Support for saving user credentials—You can optionally choose to save the user credentials on Juniper Secure Connect application. You can save the user ID or a combination of user ID and password. This feature is functional once your administrator enables credentials saving option on the SRX Series Firewall.

To save the credentials, perform the following steps:

1. Open the Juniper Secure Connect application.

2. Navigate to Connection Profile > New Connection > Gateway Address > Enter URL.

3. Click the ellipsis (3 vertical dots) on top right of the application and click Connect

4. In the dialog box that you see, provide User ID and Password.

5. Select the check box to save the credentials.

To delete the saved credentials manually from the associated connection profile:

1. Navigate to Connection Profile > Gateway Address > Select A Gateway Address from the drop-down.

2. On the gateway address, long press the URL and click Clear Credentials to clear the saved credentials.

See Juniper Secure Connect User Guide.

Prelogon compliance support—Your Juniper Secure Connect application can establish a VPN connection based on the remote-access endpoint admission criteria set by the administrator on the SRX Series Firewall. These criteria are a set of compliance validations that are performed before the user authentication. This feature adds additional security to your remote-access VPN connection.

Support for search domain names—We provide support for DNS search domain names with Juniper Secure Connect application that is installed on your Android device. As a system administrator, when you configure a set of search domain names in SRX Series Firewalls, the Juniper Secure Connect application uses the search domain feature to handle DNS lookups. The DNS search domain feature is applicable for both, full tunnel and split tunnel, configurations.

You can provide more than one search domain names using the configuration statement [set security remote-access client-config name domain-name domain-name] multiple times. When you enter more than one domain name, the Junos OS automatically adds a separator (comma) to that value. Ensure that the number of domain names is limited to the total number of characters which is 1023. For example, the two domain names, juniper.net,lab.juniper.net, consume 27 characters, while juniper.net consumes 11 characters.
