Symptoms

A pop-up window shows up and requests to download the client component.

Impact

End users are unable to use the browser-based VPN.

Conditions

Either of these conditions can trigger it: #1 -- Network Access configured and webtop type to "Network Access" -- VPE configured [Machine Info (or Anti Virus Check)] -- [Resource Assignment (NA + Webtop)] #2 -- Network Access (auto launch) and webtop configured -- VPE configured [Machine Info (or Anti Virus Check)] -- [Resource Assignment (NA + Webtop)]

Workaround

Any of these workarounds will work: -- Use Internet Explorer -- Do not configure Network Access auto launch or "Network Access" for the webtop type -- Insert the message box between Client Inspection (Machine info, etc.) and "Resource Assignment" on the VPE -- Ignore the message (click "Click here"), and it allows you to move on to the next step
