4 Service Release 8.11 Build 168 (Windows 32/64) August 2013 Prerequisites Operating System Support The following Microsoft Operating Systems are supported with this release: Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition 32/64 Bit Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 32/64 Bit Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64 Bit 1. New Features and Enhancements Multi processor-/core support Support for modern multi core architectures for better use of current hardware to enhance VPN throughput. Support for ECC (ECC: Elliptic curve cryptography) Support for certificates whose signature was created with the elliptic curve algorithm instead of the RSA algorithm. Accessing the Gateway The Secure Enterprise VPN Server can be accessed from an NCP HA Server using IPv6 addressing. Pre-requisites: HA Server (Win): Version 3.04 from build 020 Secure Enterprise Server (Win): Version 8.11 from build 168 Server Plug-in (SEM): Version 8.11 from build 48 Prioritization of clients NCP Secure Enterprise VPN Server, operating in Load Balancing Mode of an HA Server environment enables the HA Server to prioritize VPN access by Clients. This is particularly important when the HA Server is overloaded or when there are insufficient licenses available for all Clients; in such circumstances, only users with a high priority are allowed access. Setting the Priority in the Server Configuration: User priority is defined at the server in the HA Server configuration, in the template of the respective HA Server and is effective for all gateways connected to it. The User Priority, defined there for the users of a Domain Group, defines the priority Clients must have been assigned, in order to be allowed access. Highest priority is "1", lowest is "255", and access is allowed for users with the highest priority. The default setting, "0" means that priority based access is switched off and all VPN users are allowed access. If User Priority functionality is in use, all VPN users with priority less than the priority value configured here will be blocked from establishing VPN connections. Highest priority is "1". For example, if User Priority "5" is defined at the Server, all users with a lower priority, i.e. 6 to 255, will be blocked. This happens immediately on setting the parameter. VPN tunnels from Clients which, at this page 4 of 18

5 point in time, have been assigned a lower priority, will be disconnected, and renewed attempts to establish a connection will be rejected. Disconnections and rejections of VPN connection establishment attempts are logged with a corresponding message. Assigning User Priority in the Client Configuration: The priority allocated to a specific user can only be defined in the RADIUS or LDAP configuration of the respective Client. Highest priority is "1", lowest is "255", and access is allowed for users with the highest priority. Important: at the Client, "0" is the default value for User Priority, and the centrally applied priority-based restriction of Client access does not apply to Clients with User Priority "0". Such Clients are ALWAYS allowed access. Text in the GUI (Domain-Groups): As soon as User Priority functionality is in switched on, all VPN users with priority less than the priority value configured here will be blocked from establishing VPN connections. Highest priority is "1", lowest is "255". VPN tunnels already established from Clients with a lower priority are immediately disconnected. "0" switches off the prioritized tunnel-use functionality. 2. Improvements / Problems Resolved An issue when using LDAP attributes with a length of 256 characters has been resolved. 3. Known Issues Operating System Installation on Microsoft Windows Server 2012 is NOT supported. IKEv2 authentication Although the EAP TLS method can be configured within the IKEv2 authentication, it is not implemented. page 5 of 18

6 Service Release 8.10 Build 085 (Windows 32/64) May 2013 Prerequisites Operating System Support The following Microsoft Operating Systems are supported with this release: Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition 32 bit Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Service Pack 2 32 and 64 bit Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Service Pack 64 bit Windows Server 2012 Datacenter 64 bit 1. New Features and Enhancements None 2. Improvements / Problems Resolved VPN Connection Aborted after IKE Phase 2 Rekeying After expiry of the "Duration" timer (IPsec Policies - Configuration - Duration / Default 8 hours), instead of the phase 2 re-keying being carried out, the connection was aborted. This problem has now been resolved. 3. Known Issues None page 6 of 18

7 Service Release 8.10 Build 079 (Windows 32/64) March 2013 Prerequisites Operating System Support The following Microsoft Operating Systems are supported with this release: Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition 32 bit Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Service Pack 2 32 and 64 bit Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Service Pack 64 bit Windows Server 2012 Datacenter 64 bit 1. New Features and Enhancements The following new feature has been introduced in this release: Support of Windows Server 2012 The NCP Secure Enterprise VPN Server supports the Windows Server 2012 (64 bit) operating system. 2. Problems Resolved None 3. Known Issues Failure to download Endpoint Policies (EP) from Secure Enterprise Management (SEM versions earlier than 3.0) to Secure Enterprise VPN Server (SES) 8.10 Endpoint policies download to a SES v8.10 will fail IF from a SEM version earlier than v3.0 AND the SES is not managed by the SEM. Background: SEM v2.x transmitted packets with an incorrect length. SES v8.10 now checks and ignores packets with incorrect length. SEM v3.0 has been corrected to transmit packets with correct length. page 7 of 18

8 Service Release 8.10 Build 064 (Windows 32/64) June 2012 Prerequisites Operating System Support The following Microsoft Operating Systems are supported with this release: Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition 32 bit Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Service Pack 2 32 and 64 bit Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Service Pack 64 bit 1. New Features and Enhancements The following new features have been introduced in this release: New, separate switches for IKEv1 and IKEv2 Connections via IPsec Native and IPsec over L2TP can only be established if the key exchange is handled via either the IKEv1 or IKEv2 protocol. If these neither of these key exchange protocols is selected, connections can only be established via L2Sec or L2TP. The switches are located at the Local System level and both protocols are active by default. IKEv2 including MobIKE The gateway now supports IKEv2 including MobIKE. The following EAP types are supported with this implementation: EAP-MD5-Challenge EAP-TLS EAP-MSCHAP-V2 Seamless Roaming Seamless Roaming provides the user with an always on capability: in the event that a communication medium fails, Seamless Roaming in an NCP Secure Enterprise Client (for Windows from version 9.30) automatically switches to the next available medium, choosing from LAN, WiFi and 3G. Applications that make use of the VPN tunnel are not disturbed by the switchover from one medium to another. This version of the NCP Secure Enterprise VPN Server includes the functionality necessary to support Seamless Roaming at the NCP Secure Clients. Seamless Roaming Force Single VPN Connection This switch (in HA Server) prevents multiple VPN connections, from a single NCP Secure Client, remaining open when Seamless Roaming is in operation. When set (the default state) and a VPN connection request is received at a gateway, that gateway sends a message to all other gateways in the load balancing/ha group, indicating that this user is now connected to gateway x and all other connections for this user must be terminated. Pre-requisites: HA Server (Win): Version 3.03 from build 004 Secure Enterprise VPN Server (Win): Version 8.10 from build 051 page 8 of 18

9 Server Plug-in (SEM): from build 15 Execute Endpoint Security only for NCP Clients A feature (a switch in "Local System") has been added to enable Endpoint Security to be executed only with NCP Clients. Other Clients that do not support NCP Endpoint Security, e.g. ipads, can now use the same profile, even when Endpoint Security is enabled. This is especially useful when, in addition to NCP Clients, mixed operation is supported and, for example, ipads with their integrated VPN Client are in use. If this function is NOT activated, then connection requests from clients from other manufacturers, i.e. that do not support NCP Endpoint Security, or that do not fulfill the security policies will be rejected. IP Address Assignment by DHCP [Domain Groups] The VPN gateway can automatically assign an available address to each Client when that Client connects to the gateway. This address can be assigned either from a pool or by means of IP address assignment from a DHCP server, and is assigned for the duration of the session. A Domain Group can contain the configuration details of one DHCP server (with IP address and DHCP Source IP Address). IF-MAP The ESUKOM project aims to develop a real-time security solution for enterprise networks that works based upon the correlation of metadata. A key challenge for ESUKOM is the steadily increasing adoption of mobile consumer electronic devices (smartphones) for business purposes which generate new threats for enterprise networks ESUKOM focuses on the integration of available and widely deployed security measures (both commercial and open source) based upon the IF-MAP (Interface for Metadata Access Points) specification from the Trusted Computing Group (TCG). As of release 8.10 of the NCP Secure Server, the IF-MAP Server in Hannover University can be used, cost free, for test purposes. The URL is Realtime Enforcement through the IF-MAP Protocol Using IF-MAP Protocol Events, the Server can trigger an action such as disconnecting a connection or switching the Filter Group. IF-MAP Events can be configured accordingly in the Domain Group. Single Sign-on for SSL VPN Single Sign-on can be used when the web server application (configured under Web Proxies) being accessed requires the same access data as that being used by the SSL VPN client. Usernames and passwords can then be centrally managed by Active Directory, RADIUS or LDAP. Dependent on application, Single Sign-on authentication can be performed with HTTP Authentication (Basic (RFC2617), HTTP Digest (RFC2617) and NTLM (Microsoft)), or using the Post Form Method. SSO with web applications has been tested with Outlook Web Access (OWA) 2003, 2007 and 2010, RDP Client and CITRIX Webinterface 4.5, 5.1. SSO with port forwarding is only supported for an application that can accept parameters (username and password) via its command line. Virtual Private Desktop The Virtual Private Desktop is a work area (sandbox), decoupled from the underlying operating system and made available to the user by means of the SSL VPN session. Applications started and running in this work area, together with any files created, are disconnected from the underlying operating system. Files such as attachments are stored in the Virtual Private Desktop in a private container that is encrypted using AES. When the SSL VPN session is terminated, all files in the container are deleted. page 9 of 18

10 Only NCP Clients allowed This switch ensures that connections can only be established from NCP VPN Clients. If connection establishment attempts are made from clients of other manufacturers, these will be refused. The function can be applied globally or on a domain group basis. Automatic Thin Client Authentication at a Proxy If a proxy, located within the same Windows domain as the Thin Client, is being used for access to the Internet and authentication of accesses via the proxy is handled by the HTTP Negotiate / Kerberos protocol, the details of the user s existing domain registration at his/her associated Windows system will be used to authenticate the connection from the Thin Client to that proxy. If all these conditions are fulfilled, authentication of the Thin Client at the proxy will be automatic. If not, the user will be presented with the proxy s authentication request prompt. Note: this feature is independent of the Single Sign-on for SSL VPN functionality mentioned above. 2. Problems Resolved None 3. Known Issues Failure to download Endpoint Policies (EP) from Secure Enterprise Management (SEM versions earlier than 3.0) to Secure Enterprise VPN Server (SES) 8.10 Endpoint policies download to a SES v8.10 will fail IF from a SEM version earlier than v3.0 AND the SES is not managed by the SEM. Background: SEM v2.x transmitted packets with an incorrect length. SES v8.10 now checks and ignores packets with incorrect length. SEM v3.0 has been corrected to transmit packets with correct length. 4.
