10.2 Configuring the Mobile Tool on the Appliance

After you have installed and configured the appliance, you must configure the Mobile tool if you want to provide mobile access for users.

To configure the Mobile tool:

  1. Log in with an appliance administrator account to the administration console at https://appliance_dns_name/appliance/index.html.

  2. Drag the Mobile icon from the Tools palette to the Tools panel.

  3. Click the Mobile icon on the Tools panel and then click Configure.

  4. In the Display name field on the Mobile Application Access window, type your company name. This name appears in the bar at the top of the MobileAccess app window on users’ mobile devices.

  5. In the Prompt for Password Re-authentication in x Days field, specify how long users can continue to use an authenticated password on mobile devices before re-authentication is required.

  6. (Optional) On the Ask for pin bar, specify whether users must set a PIN for the MobileAccess app on their mobile devices, and whether they must re-enter the PIN after a period of inactivity. You can change this requirement at any time. For more information, see Understanding the MobileAccess PIN.

  7. Click OK.

  8. Click Apply on the Admin page.

  9. Wait for the apply operation to finish. (The gear stops spinning on the appliance when the operation has finished.)

  10. Continue with Replacing the Default Certificate on the Appliance.
