NetExtender Supports Network logon (PreLogon)

Users always log in to their Windows accounts before connecting to a VPN tunnel. However in a typical scenario, a VPN tunnel (NetExtender) is required to allow the user to log in for the first time or after a password reset. Network Logon (PreLogon) is a feature that allows users to establish a VPN tunnel (NetExtender) before they can log on to their Windows accounts.

For more information on enabling Network Logon (PreLogon) and other information, see the section Enabling Network Logon (PreLogon) Feature on NetExtender .
