QuickVPN Client v1.3.0.3 Release Note 4/3/2008

Changes:

1. QuickVPN Client is re-branded for Cisco Small Business.
2. The default install directory was changed to c:\Program Files\Cisco Small Business\QuickVPN Client
3. Help page was updated.
4. QuickVPN Client will block the use of the @ character in the password field,
   since the character is a reserved character in the QuickVPN protocol.

Known Issues:

1. Windows Firewall needs to be enabled on Windows Vista in order for QuickVPN
   Client to function properly. This is due to the fact that IPSec service on
   Vista is disabled when Windows Firewall is disabled. Some third-party   
   firewall will disable the Windows Firewall, which will cause QuickVPN
   to fail.  

2. Users need to have the administrative rights in order to use QuickVPN Client.
   This is a constraint posed by the Windows operating systems.

3. There is a known issue with Windows XP SP2 Firewall - ICMP packets are always
   dropped by the Firewall when the Firewall is enabled. The issue will cause
   the QuickVPN Client not being able to establish a tunnel with the remote   
   QuickVPN Server successfully. Microsoft has released a patch to fix this
   issue. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889527/en-us
   Install the patch to resolve this issue.

4. QuickVPN tunnels do not pass NetBIOS broadcast packets. This may create a
   problem when users want to search computers by names or to browse the network
   neighborhood on Windows Explorer. Users can use a LMHOSTS file to work around
   this issue. More information can be found at
