Virtual Intranet Access
Virtual Intranet Access (AOS-W VIA) is part of the Alcatel-Lucent remote networks solution intended for
teleworkers and mobile users. AOS-W VIA detects the network environment (trusted and untrusted) of the user
and connects the users to the enterprise network. Trusted networks refers to a protected office network that
allows users to directly access the corporate intranet. Untrusted networks are public Wi-Fi hotspots such as
airports, cafes, or home network.
The AOS-W VIA solution includes the AOS-W VIA client and switch configuration.
n AOS-W VIA client– Remote workers and mobile users can install AOS-W VIA on their computers to connect to
their enterprise network from remote locations.

authentication profile, and connection profile. Use either the WebUI or CLI to configure the switch.
AOS-W VIA requires the PEFV license and is supported on OAW-40xx Series and OAW-4x50 Series switches.
