Sophos Network Agent allows a local network user to authenticate himself/herself to the Sophos XG Firewall with an Android device. Once the connection is established and the user is recognized, the device can be used for browsing through the Internet, according to the current user policy set up by the administrator.
More information can be found here.
Features:
- Communication is done via an encrypted, secured connection (TLS)
- Additional validation of the connected server
- Easy to use, with minimum initial setup
- Minimum interaction required (bringing the app into foreground automatically authenticates the user)
NOTE
- The app requires network connectivity (Wi-Fi) in order to work. Losing connectivity results into disconnecting the user. Connection must then be re-established in order for the user to be authenticated.
- Please not that if only cellular traffic is turned on or the Wi-Fi network is not the default one, the App will refuse to connect to the Firewall.
- The app works only with Sophos XG Firewall.
- When launching the app for the first time, the "No certificate found" error might be seen. You need to log into User Portal with your Sophos Firewall username and download the required certificate from there. After importing it into the app, the error will go away and connection will be possible. See help section for more information.
- The required certificate can also be imported from file/commander apps and not only from the browser; please note that some apps do not properly set the correct MIME-type and therefore the option to import the certificate is not shown, something we cannot influence. Please turn to other file apps or to the Chrome browser if you experience any troubles.

有关详细信息,请访问此处。
特征:
- 通过加密的安全连接(TLS)完成通信
- 连接服务器的附加验证
- 易于使用,初始设置最少
- 所需的最小交互(将应用程序置于前台自动验证用户)
注意
- 该应用程序需要网络连接(Wi-Fi)才能工作。丢失连接会导致用户断开连接。然后必须重新建立连接,以便对用户进行身份验证。
- 请注意,如果仅打开蜂窝流量或Wi-Fi网络不是默认设备,则应用程序将拒绝连接到防火墙。
- 该应用程序仅适用于Sophos XG Firewall。
- 首次启动应用程序时,可能会看到“未找到证书”错误。您需要使用Sophos Firewall用户名登录用户门户并从那里下载所需的证书。将其导入应用程序后,错误将消失并且可以进行连接。有关更多信息,请参阅帮助部分
- 所需的证书也可以从文件/指挥官应用程序导入,而不仅仅是从浏览器导入;请注意,某些应用程序未正确设置正确的MIME类型,因此未显示导入证书的选项,这是我们无法影响的。如果您遇到任何问题,请转到其他文件应用或Chrome浏览器。
