CHAPTER 33
Zyxel Device SecuExtender
(Windows)
The Zyxel Device automatically loads the Zyxel Device SecuExtender for Windows client program to your
computer after a successful login to an SSL VPN tunnel with network extension support enabled.
Note: For information on using the Zyxel Device SecuExtender for Mac client program, please
see its User’s Guide at the download library on the Zyxel website.
The Zyxel Device SecuExtender (Windows) lets you:
• Access servers, remote desktops and manage files as if you were on the local network.
• Use applications like e-mail, file transfer, and remote desktop programs directly without using a
browser. For example, you can use Outlook for e-mail instead of the Zyxel Device’s web-based e-mail.
• Use applications, even proprietary applications, for which the Zyxel Device does not offer SSL
application objects.
The applications must be installed on your computer. For example, to use the VNC remote desktop
program, you must have the VNC client installed on your computer.

• Green: the SSL VPN tunnel is connected. You can connect to the SSL application and network
resources. You can also use another application to access resources behind the Zyxel Device.
• Gray: the SSL VPN tunnel’s connection is suspended. This means the SSL VPN tunnel is connected, but
the Zyxel Device SecuExtender will not send any traffic through it until you right-click the icon and
resume the connection.
• Red: the SSL VPN tunnel is not connected. You cannot connect to the SSL application and network
resources.
