Verify Incoming Connections to the Barracuda SSL VPN
The Barracuda SSL VPN is able to accept incoming SSL connections, once your corporate firewall is
configured to forward SSL connections through to the Barracuda SSL VPN.
1. Test the connection, by using a web browser from the Internet (not inside the LAN) to establish an SSL connection
to the external IP address of your corporate firewall. For example, if your firewall’s external IP address is
203.0.113.1, direct your browser to
https://203.0.113.1/
2. Proceed at the certificate warning.
3. On the login page for the SSL VPN web interface, log in with the default credentials for the SSL VPN administrator:
Login:

Password:
ssladmin
Now you can set up accounts and other resources for users of the Barracuda SSL VPN.
