Pushing VPN Client from 3000 Concentrator

[paddyxdoyle]

We want to install VPN Clients on 1000 users machines. Is it possible to push and install the VPN Client software and the required Policy from a VPN 3030 concentrator to the designated Laptops? There is an ADSL private link between the remote laptops and the head office were the Concentrator is located. What is the best way to remotely install the VPN Client without a Site Visit?

Use of the VPN 3002 Hardware Client allows users on any operating system behind the client to connect to the concentrator without the installation of separate software on individual desktops:

The "client update" feature became available in version 3.0 for the VPN 3002 Hardware Client and in version 3.1 for the Cisco VPN software client. This feature works differently for the VPN 3002 Hardware Client and the Cisco VPN software client. The "client update" used for VPN 3002 Hardware Clients lets administrators automatically update software/firmware for the VPN 3002 Hardware Clients deployed in diverse locations. The "client update" used for Cisco VPN software clients lets administrators at a central location automatically notify the client users when it is time to update the VPN Client software. Action is then required on the part of users to retrieve and install the newer software.
