Remote Domain Authentication
If your company has established security rules which require that your Windows User Logon is authorized
by a Windows Domain Controller, you must have access to your company network and your domain
controller for access to your computer. Therefore, when you are not directly connected to your company
network you must use a remote access client such as the AT&T Global Network Client to authenticate to
your remote network before you attempt to logon to your computer.
To establish network connectivity prior to Windows User Authentication, when using Windows 7 and
Windows 8, the AT&T Global Network Client acts as a Microsoft PLAP Credential Provider.
AT&T Global Network Client Firewall
The AT&T Global Network Client Firewall is a component of the AT&T Global Network Client which
provides basic firewall capabilities. The AT&T Global Network Client Firewall uses the Windows firewall
engine for the firewall and fencing.
The AT&T Global Network Client Firewall provides the following:
• Blocks unsolicited traffic when not connected
• Blocks unsolicited Internet traffic while VPN connected
