VPN Client Support

Anonymous

The info page for the new Samsung RT tablet - the ATIV tab - says:

Enterprise Solutions (upon request): Exchange ActiveSync, On-Device Encryption, Cisco VPN (Virtual Private Network), Juniper Junos Pulse VPN, EAS

But the Junos Pulse client is not in the Windows Store - so either Samsung has some exclusive deal with Juniper, or this is a "coming soon" feature.

I'd like an answer. As much as I love the Surface hardware, if I cannot get the last piece of the puzzle I need for work, the Pulse client, and it is available on another vendor's tablet, I'll need to think about switching.

I would really like an answer from Microsoft on this one.

And to re-confirm - the ATIV is a Windows 8 RT tablet, NOT a Windows 8 Pro tablet.

    Hi Steven,

    I was hoping you could give us an update on vendors receiving the API.  I just purchased a Surface RT yesterday and I really do like it; however, without remote access to my work PC, it doesn't provide the necessary level of productivity I need to (somewhat) replace my laptop on short trips.

    Thanks again for looking into this for everyone.

    Todd

    Cisco developed and released apps to use Anyconnect on other platforms that did not support it, it is up to them to develop an app and release it through the Windows Store for RT.

    Cisco said: AnyConnect is not supported on Windows RT. There are no APIs provided in the operating system to provide this functionality. Cisco has an open request with Microsoft on this topic. Customers who want this functionality should contact Microsoft to express their interest.
