About Symantec Remote Access Connector

Symantec Remote Access Connector is an IT Management Suite 7.6 application that lets you configure and integrate a third-party remote connection tool such as Microsoft® Remote Desktop Connection or Bomgar™ Remote Support Solution with IT Management Suite. You can then use the third-party tool to connect to a client computer.

The Remote Access Connector tool has the following highlights:

• You do not require a license to use the Remote Access Connector tool. However, you do require a license for the third-party remote connection tool that you want to integrate with IT Management Suite.

• You can integrate more than one remote connection tool. The multiple tools can be accessed from the right-click option in Symantec Management Console.

  See Enabling right-click menu to use the Remote Access Connector options.

• You can install Remote Access Connector individually or as a part of Client Management Suite.
