Preferences Overview
SonicWall Mobile Connect allows you to set several preferences for connection and logging options. The Preferences screen is available under the SonicWall Mobile Connectmenu.
SonicWall Mobile Connect menu
Clicking Preferences displays the configurable settings.
Preferences settings
The following options are controlled from the Preferences:
- Connect on Launch - Sets Mobile Connect to automatically initiate a connection to the last-used profile when the application is launched.
- Automatic Reconnect - Sets Mobile Connect to automatically attempt to reconnect if the connection is lost. The SSL VPN connection can be disrupted when your device’s connection transitions to a different network type (for example, from WiFi to Ethernet). This setting lets applications rely on a sustained VPN connection. There is no limit on the amount of time it takes to reconnect.
-
URL Control - Allows other mobile applications to pass action requests using special URLs to Mobile Connect. These action requests can create VPN connection entries and connect or disconnect VPN connections. For example, another application can launch Mobile Connect, access internal resources as needed, and then disconnect by using the mobileconnect:// or sonicwallmobileconnect:// URL scheme.
Additional information about URL Control is provided in URL Control Syntax and Parameters.
- Touch ID - Set Mobile Connect to prompt for Touch ID during username/password authentication. Requires connection to servers that have a configured Touch ID policy.
- Debug Logging - Enables full debug log messages of Mobile Connect activity. Leave this section disabled unless instructed to enable it by SonicWall Support staff.
