Remote Access Clients provide a simple and secure way for endpoints to connect
remotely to corporate resources over the Internet, through a VPN tunnel. This release includes these new features and enhancements:
• Windows 8 Ready
This release supports client installation on windows 8 (consumer preview) OS
32/64 bit.

automatically disable SDL when the endpoint client is connected to an internal
network. This decision is based on the Location Awareness feature or if the
endpoint client has an IP address in an encryption domain.
