1.0 Introduction
The Juniper® Networks SA Series SSL VPN Appliances enable remote and mobile employees, customers, and
partners to gain secure access to corporate Virtual Private Network resources and applications. Providing secure
access via a VPN over existing Internet connections requires strong, two-factor authentication to protect
resources. The ActivIdentity solutions that work with Juniper Networks incorporate SSL VPN solutions with
versatile, strong authentication that is flexible, scalable, and simple to manage. ActivIdentity offers two solutions:
•
ActivIdentity® 4TRESS™ AAA Server for Remote Access—Addresses the security risks associated
with a mobile workforce remotely accessing systems and data.
•
ActivIdentity 4TRESS™ Authentication Server (AS)—Offers support for multiple authentication
methods that are useful for diverse audiences across a variety of service channels (SAML, Radius,
etc.), including user name and password, mobile and PC soft tokens, one-time passwords, and
transparent Web soft tokens.

Prerequisites
•
The ActivIdentity 4TRESS AAA Server is up-to-date (v6.7) with LDAP users and groups already
configured.

Juniper SA version 7.1.x installed and configured.
•
The Web soft token is configured to work with or without a PIN.
•
Users have static LDAP passwords for access to the Self Help Desk to enroll web tokens.
