How Mobile Connect Works | 4
Using Mobile Connect for Android
SonicWALL Mobile Connect for AndroidTM is an app that enables Android devices to establish
secure, mobile connections to private networks protected by Dell SonicWALL security
appliances.
How Mobile Connect Works
Modern business practices increasingly require that users be able to access any network
resource (files, internal websites, etc.), anytime, anywhere. At the same time, ensuring the
security of these resources is a constant struggle. While most users are aware that they must
take care to protect computers from network security risks, this security awareness does not
always extend to mobile devices. And yet, mobile devices are increasingly subject to security
attacks. Furthermore, mobile devices often use insecure, untrusted, public Wi-Fi hotspots to
connect to the Internet. It is therefore a challenge to provide secure, mobile access while still
guarding against the inherent security risks of using mobile devices.
The SonicWALL Mobile Connect app for Android devices provides secure, mobile access to
sensitive network resources. Mobile Connect establishes a Secure Socket Layer Virtual Private
Network (SSL VPN) connection to private networks that are protected by Dell SonicWALL
security appliances. All traffic to and from the private network is securely transmitted over the
SSL VPN tunnel.
To get started with SonicWALL Mobile Connect:
1. Install SonicWALL Mobile Connect from the Google Play Store or the Amazon Appstore.
2. Enter connection information (server name, username, password, etc.).
3. Initiate a connection to the network.
4. Mobile Connect establishes a SSL VPN tunnel to the Dell SonicWALL security appliance.
5. You can now access resources on the private network. All traffic to and from the private
network is securely transmitted over the SSL VPN tunnel.
Prerequisites
The following sections describe prerequisites for SonicWALL Mobile Connect:
•Android Product Support on page 5
•Dell SonicWALL Appliance Support on page 5
•Required Network Information on page 6
5 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
Android Product Support
SonicWALL Mobile Connect requires the Android 4.0 or newer platform and a cellular or Wi-Fi
connection.
SonicWALL Mobile Connect has been verified to run on the following Android devices running
the official Android 4.0 platform:
Note
Although Mobile Connect is designed to work with all Android devices running the 4.0 or
newer platform, only the above platforms have been tested and verified to run Mobile
Connect. Custom ROMs are not officially supported.
Dell SonicWALL Appliance Support
SonicWALL Mobile Connect is a free app, but requires a concurrent user license on one of the
following Dell SonicWALL solutions in order to function properly:
•Dell SonicWALL firewall appliances including the TZ, NSA, E-Class NSA running SonicOS
5.8.1.0 or higher
•Dell SonicWALL SRA appliances running 5.5 or higher

What’s New in This Release?
Application Access Control – Support for the Application Access Control feature in Dell
Secure Mobile Access 11.0 on E-Class SRA appliances is added in Mobile Connect 3.1.
Application Access Control allows remote access administrators to control exactly which
resources on the corporate network each application (app) can access. Meanwhile, the device
owner can still use their personal Android device for their own activities such as personal email,
financial data, pictures, music, accessing third party web sites, etc.
For more information, see Application Access Control on page 29.
Personal Device Authorization – Mobile Connect 3.1 supports the Personal Device
Authorization feature in Dell Secure Mobile Access 11.0 on E-Class SRA appliances.
Administrators can configure the E-Class SRA appliance so that users who log in with personal
devices are allowed access to the network, provided that the user authorizes the device.
Personal Device Authorization is configured independently of Application Access Control and
the two features are not required to be simultaneously enabled.
During the authorization process of the personal device:
•An authorization record is created that associates the device with the user.
•Dell Venue 7 and 8 •ASUS Nexus 7
•Samsung Nexus 10 •ASUS FonePad
•Samsung Galaxy S2 •LG Nexus 4
•Samsung Galaxy S3 •LG Nexus 5
•Samsung Galaxy S4 •Motorola Droid Razr Tablet
•Samsung Galaxy S5
•Samsung Galaxy Tab •Amazon Kindle Fire HDX

navigate directly to the bookmark’s destination. Bookmarks will only appear after a VPN
connection is established if the server is running firmware that supports Mobile Connect
bookmarks and bookmarks have been defined for that user.
If Application Access Control is configured on the server (E-Class SRA only), the list of
Bookmarks is replaced by a list of apps that are allowed to access the corporate network.
Using Mobile Connect | 16
8. Press the Home button to return to your device’s home screen. You can now navigate to
other apps to access your Intranet network. The status bar will display a VPN icon to
indicate that the session is still connected.
If the VPN connection is interrupted, the VPN icon will disappear and you will no longer be
able to access the Intranet network. This can happen if your device’s connection transitions
to a different network connection (for example, from Wi-Fi to cellular).
Return to Mobile Connect to reestablish the connection. Optionally, you can configure the
Automatic Reconnect option on the Settings tab to have Mobile Connect automatically
attempt to reestablish interrupted connections.
Configuring Mobile Connect Settings
SonicWALL Mobile Connect provides several settings for connection and logging options. The
Settings tab also provides Support information, which includes a User Guide and device,
connection, and server information.
17 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
The following options are controlled from the Settings tab:
•Connect on Launch - Sets Mobile Connect to automatically initiate a connection to the
last-used profile when it is launched.
•Automatic Reconnect - Sets Mobile Connect to automatically attempt to reconnect if the
connection is lost. The SSL VPN connection can be disrupted when your device’s
connection transitions to a different network type (for example, from Wi-Fi to 3G). This
setting lets applications rely on a sustained VPN connection. There is no limit on the
amount of time it takes to reconnect.
•URL Control - Allows other mobile applications to pass action requests using special URLs to
Mobile Connect. These action requests can create VPN connection entries and connect or
disconnect VPN connections. For example, another application can launch Mobile Connect,
access internal resources as needed, and then disconnect by using the mobileconnect://
or sonicwallmobileconnect:// URL scheme. Some common examples of URL Control are:
Add profile: mobileconnect://addprofile[/
]?name=ConnectionName&server=ServerAddress[&Parameter1=Value&Parameter2
=Value...]
Connect: mobileconnect://connect[/
]?[name=ConnectionName|server=ServerAddress][&Parameter1=Value&Parameter2
=Value...]
Disconnect: mobileconnect://disconnect[/]
Additional information about URL Control is provided in URL Control Syntax and
Parameters on page 18.
•Bookmarks - Displays centrally configured shortcuts (called bookmarks) to VPN resources
like web pages, Remote Desktop servers, files, and terminal servers. These bookmarks,
which are displayed on the main Connection tab when the VPN is connected, provide one-
touch access to frequently used applications.
If using a SRA appliance, pulling down the Connection screen and releasing it refreshes
the bookmarks. Mobile Connect supports Remote Desktop options like screen size and
enable/disable audio as long as both the server bookmark and third party application
support the option.
Note Bookmarks are supported on SRA appliances only when running 7.0 or higher and
not supported on Next Generation Firewall appliances running SonicOS.
Additional information about bookmarks is provided in Bookmarks.
•Files > Delete Cached Files - Deletes all cached files that have been downloaded and
stored on the device. Note that cached files are stored encrypted on the device for added
security.
Note Files are supported on SRA appliances only when running 7.5 or higher and not
supported on appliances running SonicOS.
Additional information about Files is provided in Files Bookmarks.
•Logs > Debug Logging - Enables full debug log messages of Mobile Connect activity.
Leave this setting disabled unless instructed to enable it by Dell SonicWALL Support staff.
•Logs > Clear Logs - Deletes all log files saved on the device.
The Support section of the Settings tab provides the following support information:
•User Guide - Displays the SonicWALL Mobile Connect User Guide.
Using Mobile Connect | 18
•Device Information - Displays information about the device, Wi-Fi connection, Cellular
connection, and DNS servers.
•Email Logs - Creates an email to send the Mobile Connect log to Dell SonicWALL Support
staff. Tap Send to send the email.
E-Class SRA Settings
Connections to Dell SonicWALL E-Class SRA appliances have two additional options that are
available on the Edit Connection window. To view this option, go to the Connection tab and
tap and hold on the Connection line to bring up the Edit Connection window.
The following options can be configured:
•Remember Credentials - Enables saving of user authentication credentials for the VPN
connection. This is enabled by default and can be controlled by the E-Series SRA server
setting. This feature requires E-Class SRA 10.7.x or Dell Secure Mobile Access 11.0 (or
higher) firmware.
•Forget Selections - Mobile Connect remembers the Login Group that you specified when
configuring the connections. To change to a different Login Group, tap Forget Selections.
The next time you connect to the server, you will be prompted to select a new Login Group.
Note
If this option is not displayed, you are connecting to either a Dell SonicWALL firewall or SRA
appliance.

Bookmarks
When there are more than five bookmarks, the bookmarks are replaced by a Filter screen that
groups bookmarks by type. Select the type of bookmarks to display or select All Bookmarks
to display all bookmarks.
Using Mobile Connect | 24
Note
When connected to an SMB SRA server, SRA 7.0 or higher is required for Bookmarks
support.
Note
When connected to a Dell Secure Mobile Access appliance with Application Access Control
enabled, the Bookmarks list is replaced by a list of trusted apps that can access the
corporate network.
Selecting a bookmark for an app that is not installed will prompt you to install the app. Apps
referenced by bookmarks also can be installed at any time using the Settings > Bookmarks
tab. In addition to installing apps for bookmarks, the Settings > Bookmarks tab is also used
to select and install apps for bookmarks that support multiple third party apps. For example, you
might select Chrome or Firefox for a Web bookmark.
Mobile Connect supports the following types of bookmarks and associated apps.
Desktop Bookmarks:
Portal name: Terminal Services (RDP – ActiveX), Terminal Services (RDP – Java) Internal type:
RDP5ActiveX, RDP5Java
RDP bookmark types attempt to launch with the associated RDP application, as configured in
the Settings tab.
Additional details such as screen resolution should be provided to the client. However, support
for passing such parameters will vary based on the application. For example:
•Wyse PocketCloud Pro does not support the “connect to console” option
Portal name: Virtual Network Computing (VNC)
Internal type: VNC
Android Version
Wyse PocketCloud Pro 1.4.217
2X Client RDP/Remote Desktop 11.0.1899
Remote RDP Lite 4.2.8
Remote RDP 4.2.8
Remote RDP Enterprise 4.2.8
Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.5
25 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
VNC bookmark types attempt to launch with the associated VNC application as configured in
the Settings tab.
Additional details such as screen resolution should be provided to the client. However, support
for passing such parameters varies based on the application.
Portal name: Citrix Portal (Citrix)
Internal type: Citrix, Citrix_https
Citrix bookmark types will attempt to launch with the associated Citrix application.
Additional details such as screen resolution should be provided to the client. However, support
for passing such parameters will very based on the application.
Web Bookmarks:
Portal name: Web (HTTP), Secure Web (HTTPS), External Web Site
Internal type: HTTP, HTTPS, URL, URL_https
These bookmarks will launch in an associated web browser and the provided ‘Name or IP
Address’ (HostID) will be passed as the parameter to display in the browser.
Portal name: Mobile Connect
Internal type: MC
The Mobile Connect bookmark type will rely on the operating system to determine and launch
the proper application. The bookmark is expected to be properly configured for launch. The
Mobile Connect app will attempt to launch it as is. (for example, telnet://server)
Terminal Bookmarks:
Portal name: Telnet, Secure Shell Version 1 (SSHv1), Secure Shell Version 2 (SSHv2)
Internal type: Telnet, SSH, SSHv1
ConnectBot notes: Proper formatting is required for ConnectBot SSH (server bookmark field
requires username@server).

Files Bookmarks
Mobile Connect 3.0 introduced secure mobile access to files through Files bookmarks. Files
bookmarks are displayed after the VPN is connected in the table of bookmarks. Tapping a Files
bookmark allows secure access to files by first checking and enforcing the server-configured
file policy, and then securely downloading and displaying the file within the Mobile Connect app.
Granular policy controls can be configured to allow other Android apps to use each file. On
Android, policies include control over whether a file may be opened in a third-party app or
securely cached on the device. Files bookmarks can also be created to folders or file share root
directories to allow directory navigation.
Note
Beginning in Mobile Connect for Android 3.0, Files bookmarks are supported on the Dell
SonicWALL SRA appliances starting with SRA 7.5 firmware. Support for Files bookmarks in
Dell Secure Mobile Access and Next Generation Firewalls is expected in a future release.
When Files bookmarks are configured for the user on the server appliance, they appear in the
list of bookmarks after the VPN is established and can be filtered by selecting the Showing: Files
row that is displayed when there are more than five bookmarks.
27 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
Tapping a Files bookmark queries and enforces the server-configured file policy for that file
bookmark. If the file is not already cached on the device, it securely downloads the file from the
SRA appliance. Once the file is downloaded, it is opened in the Android default file viewer app
for that file type.
Tapping a Files bookmark to a folder or directory allows for directory browsing and file download
and viewing of any file in the folder. All attempts to browse a file folder or view a file query the
server to enforce access policies. On Android, the default file viewer app is automatically
launched after a file is downloaded.
Using Mobile Connect | 28
Supported File Types
Mobile Connect supports all file types natively supported by Android, including the following:
Unsupported Files
If a file type is not supported, the user will be prompted that the file may not be viewable unless
there is another app installed that can view the file. The user can tap ‘Try Anyway’ and if there
is another app that is registered to handle that file type, the user will have the option to open
the file in that app.

Text and Rich-text Files .txt, .rtf
29 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
File Policies
On Android, server-configured policies control whether a file can be opened in a third-party app
or securely cached on the device.
For example, if a file has the Allow Open In policy disabled, the file cannot be viewed on an
Android device. Mobile Connect launches third-party apps to view all file types, so the Allow
Open in policy must be enabled to view a file.
Application Access Control
Mobile Connect 3.1 supports the Application Access Control feature in Dell Secure Mobile
Access 11.0 and higher on E-Class SRA appliances. Application Access Control allows remote
access administrators to control exactly which resources on the corporate network each
application (app) can access. Meanwhile, the device owner can still use their personal Android
device for their own activities such as personal email, financial data, pictures, music, accessing
third party web sites, etc.
If the E-Class SRA administrator has configured this feature, you will log in to a Login Group
that allows a list of trusted apps to access corporate resources. The specific version of each
app is included in the configuration. The Application Access Control rule list controls:
•Which applications can send data through the VPN tunnel
•Which destinations on the corporate network those applications are allowed to access
Using Mobile Connect | 30
The first time you connect and log in, you must agree to the displayed terms and conditions.
Your device is then registered with the server, and will be recognized in later connections. If the
policy or list of trusted apps changes, you will be asked to re-accept the terms and conditions.
31 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
Multiple personal devices can be authorized for a single user, and a single personal device may
be registered by multiple users.
The list of trusted apps is displayed on your device after you agree to the above terms. You can
block trusted apps from sending data to the corporate network by clearing the checkbox for
them on your device. Typically, you would uncheck any application that is only being used for
personal tasks or information, to prevent the app from sending any traffic to the corporate
network. Tapping Accept continues with the connection.
Using Mobile Connect | 32
The device is now fully connected to the E-Class SRA server.
To request that additional apps be added to the trusted apps list, contact the E-Class SRA
appliance administrator.
33 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
If your device has an app installed that is not the same version as the one approved on the
server, or if an approved app is not installed on your device, the app name is displayed without
a check mark. Instead, a red circle “no” symbol is displayed next to it.
When connected to an E-Class SRA server running Dell Secure Mobile Access 11.0 or higher
with Application Access Control configured, device traffic is handled in three ways:
1. For applications listed and selected in the application list, traffic destined for the corporate
network from those applications is allowed to enter the VPN tunnel. The application ID and
signature are used by the server to identify the application.
2. For applications which are on that list and are not selected (or any other application on the
device), traffic destined for the corporate network is blocked and/or dropped by Mobile
Connect and does NOT enter the tunnel.
3. All applications (regardless of whether or not they are on the application list) send traffic
out the default interface of the device if the traffic is NOT destined for the corporate network.
Configuring Client Certificates | 34
Configuring Client Certificates
Note
Client certificate support is only available for connections to Dell SonicWALL E-Class SRA,
Dell Secure Mobile Access, and SMB SRA appliances.
Configuring Client Certificates with E-Class SRA Appliances
If a client certificate is required during authentication, you are automatically prompted to select
a client certificate from the Android device client certificate store.
Select the client certificate from the list of certificates and tap Allow.
By default a VPN configuration prompts you to select the client certificate during authentication.
If you successfully authenticate with a client certificate, the VPN configuration profile is
automatically updated to use the client certificate for each subsequent connection attempt. To
reset the client certificate selection, edit the connection and tap the Forget Selections button.
35 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
Note
If no client certificates are installed, an Android No certificates found dialog appears with an
option to install a PKCS#12 file located in external storage.
Configuring Client Certificates | 36
Configuring Client Certificates with SMB SRA Appliances
On Dell SonicWALL SMB SRA appliances, client certificate authentication is available as a
second factor authentication method in addition to standard user name and password
authentication. If a client certificate is required during authentication, you are automatically
prompted to select a client certificate from the Android device client certificate store.
37 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
Select the client certificate from the list of certificates and tap Allow.
By default the client certificate is set to Choose during login for a VPN configuration. If you
successfully authenticate with a client certificate, the VPN configuration profile is automatically
updated to set the client certificate to the one that was chosen. To reset the client certificate
selection, edit the connection and set the Client Certificate field back to Choose during login.
Note
If no client certificates are installed, an Android No certificates found dialog appears with an
option to install a PKCS#12 file located in external storage.
Monitoring Mobile Connect | 38
Monitoring Mobile Connect
The Monitor tab displays additional details about the connection, statistics on traffic
transmitted, DNS information, and routes that have been installed. The compression ratio is
shown when connected to an appliance running SRA 7.5 or higher with compression enabled.
Traffic over the VPN tunnel is compressed using the LZ4 algorithm.
The About tab of SonicWALL Mobile Connect displays the version number and legal text.
39 | SonicWALL Mobile Connect for Android User Guide
When a Mobile Connect session is active, the Android System Notifications area includes an
entry indicating that the VPN is connected.
Tapping on the SonicWALL Mobile Connect entry in the Android System Notifications area
displays a summary of statistics on the VPN session. The statistics page displays the server
name, duration of the session, and the amount of traffic that has been sent and received. Three
buttons are also provided on this screen:
•Cancel – Closes the statistics screen.
•Disconnect – Disconnects the Mobile Connect session.
•Configure – Launches the SonicWALL Mobile Connect app.
Mobile Connect Widget | 40
Mobile Connect Widget
When the SonicWALL Mobile Connect app is installed, a widget for Android is also created in
the widgets tab. It can then be dragged from the widgets tab to the home screen. This widget
is used as follows:
•The widget shows the connection status (connected, disconnected, connecting, etc.)
•Tap the icon to establish a tunnel when disconnected.
•Tap the icon to disconnect the tunnel when connected.
•Tap any other area of the widget to launch the Mobile Connect client.

Troubleshooting Mobile Connect
This section describes some troubleshooting you can try if you are unable to connect to the Dell
SonicWALL server.
Failed End Point Control Check
End Point Control can prevent the connection when the server is an E-Class SRA appliance or
an SMB SRA appliance running SRA 7.5 (or higher). During the connection process, the
connection status displays “EPC checking...” while the End Point Security policy checks are
performed. If the device is not compliant because a security check failed, an error message is
then displayed.
You can view the Mobile Connect log for more detailed information about which check failed.
For example, you might see the following if an EPC policy was set up to restrict access to only
a single device ID (EQUIPMENT ID).
