The MCE appliance series is based on Microsoft’s powerful Windows Server technologies for users on Windows 7 Enterprise or Ultimate, or Windows 8 Enterprise clients. Microsoft DirectAccess is the next generation of remote access technology replacing legacy VPN systems. Unlike traditional VPNs that require users to manually connect to the corporate network, DirectAcces automatically establishes a bi-directional connection from client computers to the corporate network. This allows for a smooth and seamless end-user experience as well as a powerful method of managing corporate endpoints for IT administrators.

Powerful Clustered-Hardware Platform, Supports Enterprise-wide Multi-Tenancy within a Single Appliance

In the MCE appliance series, each virtual machine running DirectAccess, WAP, UAG, Site-to-Site, Public Cloud connectivity, WAN optimization or other remote access technology is independent and isolated from other customer tenants. Therefore, remote access technologies can be dedicated and isolated to specific customers each with their own Active Directory security domain allowing for multi-tenancy. One customer may only require DirectAccess while others may need a broader range of technologies. MCE architecture allows these various combinations of remote access technologies to co-exist on a single appliance.
