"School ID is not configured for SSL VPN"
If this message is displayed instead of the F5 Webtop, the site has not been configured correctly. If you have been told by the delivery team that SSL Connect has been configured, please log a support request with the Support Desk.
"This page can't be displayed"
If you see a message like this after clicking the tile, a failed logout is preventing you from starting a new session. To clear the stuck session, close all the browser windows, log on to RM Unify and try again.
Unable to install the browser plugin?
If you don't already have the F5 software installed, then when you first try using SSL Connect you will be prompted to install a browser plugin. However, we recommend that instead of following those prompts, you install the F5 software from the MSI (see page 8 of the Admin Guide).
Further information about the browser installation is given in 'Appendix III: Installing the F5 plugin via Internet Explorer' and 'Appendix IV: Notes on other browsers' sections of the Admin Guide.
The connection attempt gets stuck at 'Finalizing'
The 'Network and Application Access' window may show a persistent status of 'Finalizing' instead of 'Connected'. If this happens, check that there isn't a UAC prompt that has not been accepted.
I get connected but then nothing works, can you resolve hostnames via DNS?
- Open a command prompt (cmd.exe).
- Type nslookup www.rm.com.
- Check the 'Ping statistics for' address (e.g. 10.71.54.2). This should be the school's DNS server address which you gave to RM when ordering the SSL Connect service.
- If the address is correct, try to ping it and traceroute to it. If you need to change that IP address, raise a service call with RM, including this DNS diagnostic information.
"Disconnected - Couldn't open proxy server"
You may see this message on networks where an incorrect proxy server setup is being used and the plugin is being installed via the browser.
Make sure that the system-level proxy details match those in Windows® Internet Explorer, as follows:
- As a user with administrative privileges, open a command prompt (cmd.exe).
- Type netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie.
The system proxy details are now set to match those configured in Internet Explorer. Close Internet Explorer, reopen it and log on again.
Connection fails, status is 'Disconnected' and then the 'Network and Application Access' window closes
The connection may fail, with the 'Network and Application Access' window closing before you have time to read any error message. This happens when the number of concurrent users exceeds the number of licences purchased.
Make sure your users know they should sign out of RM Unify after they have finished using SSL Connect.
The message (see image below), "RM Unify Signing out... Signing out of SSL Connect will also sign you out of RM Unify..." is seen by all users, on any device, after clicking the SSL Connect tile.
This can occur if:
- your SSL Connect subscription has expired.
- there is a problem with the order to activate/deactivate your SSL Connect licences.
- there is a technical configuration issue with your SSL Connect order.
Please ask your RM Unify super admin to check your subscriptions from the RM Unify Management Console and if this seems to be correct, please log a support call for further investigation. |
