VPN Client Support

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.

    I don't see it either.  I am disapointed.  In the video link @ 38:02, he said clients would be included in the preview release if they could be fully tested in time.  I have to assume that the Juniper client did not meet this criterion.

     

    After installing the 8.1 update on my Surface RT, there were a few more updates available in Windows Update.  I hope MS can provide Juniper without making us wait until the full/official release of 8.1.

     

     

    Do you guys see any Cisco love? I'm traveling soon and this will be a boon for me... only Surface, no laptop.

    Just installed RT 8.1 on my surface.  I see F5, sonicwall, and checkpoint......no juniper though.  I wonder why that was left out?

    Where do you see those options?            

    Never mind, found the tool with options.  I had just checked the Control Panel...

    You guys for Juniper, try setting it up with the built in VPN client program.  I think that is what Microsoft did was to add the settings capability and drivers for some VPN systems.
