Question for all,
I recently setup a Client Authentication rule for certain users going
through our network for telneting to certain ports. ex:
securID@src_net ===> host ==> tcp-2000 ===> ClientAuth.
The users telnet to the fw port 259 enter their username +token and get
authenitcation ok. THey select standard sign on and then the conection is
closed by the firewall. But everything work (per the rule I created) is this
normal for the firewall to close the connection after selecting standard
sign-on? Because now how does the firewall know when this person is finished
in establishing any more connection to the host before it asked for
authentication again? I thought that that firewall sign on window should
stay active so when the user is finished doing there work they can select
sign-off and close its session?
Thanks
