5. AD Admin

5.1 Overview

The AD Admin functionality allows an organization to map their Active Directory groups to ROAM roles.  It also allows for attribute mapping.  This alleviates administration time as when ROAM accounts are dynamically created, they are automatically assigned the roles mapped to the AD groups they belong to and their mapped AD attributes get set in ROAM.

 

If administrators change the ROAM roles mapped to an AD group (adds and/or removes roles), users will get their updated roles when they log in.  Mapped attributes that get modified in AD, will also get updated when the user logs in.

 

To have rights to this functionality, you need to be assigned the following role: [OrgName]ADAdmin.

 

5.2 How to Access the AD Role Mapping Page

To access the AD Role Mapping Page:

  1. Login to ROAM and select the Manage Mappings link in the AD Administration channel.

 

Figure-14: Manage Mappings

Image Modified

 

System logs link event: (User ID, User Name, Date/Time, Description=Manage Mappings, IP address).  With ROAM’s reporting functionality, an organization can determine who and when a user has accessed the AD Admin tool.

 

The AD Role Mapping page is displayed.

 

Figure-15: AD Role Mapping Page

5.3 How to View Current AD Group to ROAM Role Mappings

NOTE:  The attribute whose mapping has just been deleted is not removed from ROAM but it will no longer be updated.  New users dynamically created in ROAM will not have that attribute stored in ROAM.

 

5.7 How to Synchronize

 

NOTE:  It is recommended to use the synchronization upon login instead of this functionality.  The bulk synchronization is unavailable by default.  The specific user synchronization is always available.

 

To synchronize:

  1.  From the AD Role mapping page, select the Synchronize tab.

 

Figure-22: Synchronize

  2. To refresh the account policies cache, select Refresh Now.  

 

NOTE:  Active Directory has its own account policies cache so refreshing ROAM’s cache might not necessarily mean that the newly updated account policies take effect immediately in ROAM after refreshing ROAM’s cache.

 

6. Office PC Desktop

6.1 Overview

The Office PC Desktop provides remote PC access to any Windows server PC within the customer’s Intranet which has Windows Remote desktop turned on. Administrators enter the user’s IP address or PC name in the user’s ROAM account profile. The users will then have a link on their desktop which would grant access to the PC set up by the administrator.

 

A user can access more than one PC.  The list of accessible PCs can be configured to show up as descriptive text instead of an IP address or a server name.

 

ROAM’s Office PC Desktop allows both RDS and VNC computer connections within the same channel.  HTML5 technology is available for the RDS connection when Java is not available or is unusable.

 

To have rights to this functionality, you need to be assigned the following role: [OrgName]OfficePCDesktop.  As well the IP addresses or PC host names of your remote desktops need to be configured in the User Administration.

 

6.2 How to Setup Office PC Desktop

To set up Office PC Desktop:

  1. Login to ROAM as an Administrator.
  2. Click the User Administration link in the User Administration channel.

 

Figure-24: User Administration Channel

Image Modified

 

  1. Configure the IP addresses or PC host names for user’s remote desktop:
  1. Use the filter functionality to find the appropriate user.
  2. Click the arrow to the right of the Full Name of the user you wish to grant access to.  The user’s details are displayed on the right side of the window.
  3. Enter the user’s appropriate IPs or Server names in the Corporate PC Addresses attribute.  The entries can be prefixed with meaningful text to help the user differentiate between PCs to access.  This is not mandatory.  If multiple entries are required, they need to be comma delimited.  

E.g. of format: <<Prefixed text 1>>=<<IP address1>>,<<IP address2>>

 

Figure-25: Corporate PC Addresses Attribute

  1. Click Save.

 

 

NOTES:

  • If the Administrator uses a PC name, that PC name must be resolvable to an IP address by the organization’s ROAM proxy sercvers (i.e., a route must exist that is not blocked by firewalls, etc.)
  • If the Administrator uses an IP address, that address must be reachable via the ROAM proxy servers (i.e., a route must exist that is not blocked by firewalls, etc.)

8. ROAM VPN Service on Windows

8.1 Overview

The ROAM VPN Service provides powerful tunneling capability over SSL to allow secure access to complex client/server applications.

 

ROAM VPN Service eliminates the need for other shim type implementations that require advanced MS Outlook functionality. Authorization to network resources defined within the VPN Service configuration (typically a subnet) is controlled through ROAM VPN Service roles.  Multiple VPN Service roles can be defined within an organization to control access to groups of network resources/subnets. These roles are assigned to users by ROAM administrators through the ROAM Admin Console.

 

ROAM VPN Service requires a small client to be installed on the end user’s PC.  The download can be made available on the ROAM portal as part of the VPN Service role, or can be distributed as required by the IT Administrator.

 

If the VPN Service is installed, but the user does not have the VPN Service role assigned, then the VPN Service capability will not be available for that user.

 

The VPN Service can be uninstalled through the Windows Control Panel, or the Add or Remove Programs option.

 

NOTE: This feature is only supported on Windows OS.  It now supports UAC.

 

 

8.2 How to install the ROAM VPN Service

To install the ROAM VPN Service:

  1. Login to ROAM and navigate to the ROAM VPN Service channel.

  3. The ROAM VPN Service requires an upgrade.  The browser displays: The ROAM VPN Service requires an upgrade.  Use the ROAM VPN Service channel to download the latest version or contact your technical support for further support.
  4. The ROAM VPN Service is not established yet.  The browser displays: A connection to these applications has not yet been established.  Please wait for the icon to indicate a connection has been established before clicking a link in this channel.  If you experience a prolonged delay, contact your helpdesk assistance.

9. ROAM VPN Client on Windows

9.1 Overview

The ROAM VPN Client provides direct access to the corporate LAN without the use of an Internet browser.  It provides robust VPN authentication, confidentiality, and integrity without relying on IPSec, which utilizes the WinSock layer and can often encounter conflicts and errors with other programs.

 

The ROAM VPN Client is initiated from the user’s PC.  If the connection is dropped, it will automatically reconnect with the same IP.

 

In general, split tunneling is used since it allows for better internet browsing.  However, split tunneling can be disabled in interest of security.  It tunnels through firewalls including Windows Firewall and NATs over any Internet connection.

 

Although Java is not required, a client is required.  It can be downloaded from a link provided in ROAM or can be distributed as required by the IT Administrator.  The ROAM VPN client installs itself in Layer 3 of the IP stack which allows corporate TCP connectivity for all PC applications without special application configuration.

 

The ROAM VPN Client solution is a great one for applications that cannot be port forwarded.

 

 

NOTE: Requires AD authentication and Windows OS.

 

9.2 How to install the ROAM VPN Client

To install the ROAM VPN client:

  1. Login to ROAM and navigate to the ROAM VPN Client channel.
