Automatic VPN initiation (auto initiation) provides secure connections within an on-site wireless LAN (WLAN) environment through a VPN Concentrator. When auto initiation is configured on the VPN Client, the VPN Client:
Becomes active immediately when a user starts his/her PC or when the PC becomes active after being on standby or hibernating
Detects that it is in an on-site wireless LAN environment (has a wireless network card installed, is associated with an access point, and has an IP address defined as requiring auto initiation)
Establishes a VPN tunnel to the VPN Concentrator defined for its network, prompts the user to authenticate, and allows that user network access
