NSX ssl vpn-plus client on mac os 10.6.8 (snow leopard)

Hi,

I can't install vmware ssl vpn-plus client on mac os 10.6.8 (snow leopard), but from the kb I see that it is compatible with this version of the operating system (https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-6/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.nsx.admin.doc%2FGUID-160E1FF2-7C96-4575-...).

Someone knows where I can find the correct installation file for this os? (unfortunately, I can't update the os on that mac).

Thanks Smiley Wink

You need to add installation packager on SSL VPN-Plus server side for Linux/Mac. By default only Windows is created. For more information, see  https://pubs.vmware.com/NSX-6/index.jsp#com.vmware.nsx.admin.doc/GUID-5DA26BDE-C009-4FB8-A5DA-F520D8...

The installation package is already configured for mac but not work for snow leopard (10.6.8).

When I try to download the installation package, this is the message from safari, chrome and firefox (no "advanced" button).

The problem is only with this version (for example with macos sierra works).

To download the installation file in another way?

Thanks,

Regards.

As a workaround, can you download from another MAC and copy the installer to the one having trouble? - I'm fairly certain is is the same installer for all MAC versions that are supported.

URL is below:

https://ExternalEdgeInterfaceIP/sslvpn-plus/) in a browser window where ExternalEdgeInterfaceIP is the IP address of the Edge external interface where you enabled SSL VPN-Plus

I'm not sure what is causing those SSL errors, maybe there are updates for your MAC / time is wrong or some other related security issue?

Hi.

By Default the Windows Client is the only one seletec when you are creating the SSL VPN Client Instalation.

EDGE -> SSL VPN Plus-> Instalation Package

Select MAC and create.  IF you don't select he will create by the default the Windows Client

Enable the VPN and acess the EDGE external IP

Login with your created user and password

And Display the approprieted client

You can install the client by Java Script or Download the tzg file and install.

After the instalation complets  just lunch and connect

I've already tried to download the client from a newer Mac but the installation fails.

So, if the installation file is only 1 I believe it's not compatible with snow leopard Smiley Sad
