Connectors
A connector is a means of getting into or out of a constrained environment. The most common case is to get access to one or more internal resources (Web Application, Network Resource, Share, Desktop).
Agilicus supports two connector types:
- Agent. A self-updating, self-managing component that creates an outbound-only connection, and then allows reverse tunnelling. This is the most capable method
- IPSEC site-to-site. In this method an IPSEC tunnel is created between the Agilicus cloud and the protected site, and connections run over it.
When deciding how to proceed, consider these points:
Capability | Agilicus Agent | Site-to-Site IPSEC |
---|---|---|
File-system Share | โ | |
Remote Desktop | โ | |
Outbound-only connectivity, no public IP | โ | |
End-To-End TLS, secure key enclave | โ | |
TCP-based resource | โ | โ |
On-site identity-aware proxy | โ | |
Local Machine Authentication re-export | โ | |
1+1 High Availability | โ | |
M:N High Availability | โ | |
Site-to-site TCP forwarder | โ | |
HTTP Proxy | โ |
You need to have 1 connector per (internal) network segment that has resources to be exported. Typically this might mean only 1 per site, or per protected subnet or VLAN. Some customers prefer to install an Agent Connector co-located on the resource, but this is not strictly necessary.
See the guide for more information on installing the Agilicus Agent Connector.
