4. Nomadism
Nomadic users are the most frequent users of SSL VPNs. A nomad connects to an SSL gateway, enabling him or her to access a range of intranet resources by authenticating only once. Such equipment is similar to a reverse proxy server, offering the following services:
gateway and nomad authentication ;
HTTP/HTTPS gas pedal, i.e. performance enhancement through HTTP caching and SSL connection concentration functions;
translation of HTTP links, i.e. rewriting the links of HTML pages consulted to make them accessible (§ 4.3.1.1
