Resources for Large Corp SSL VPN

Hi, I'm new to F5, moving from Juniper ssl vpn. what I need is an elegant way to assign resources to each vpn user. Most need just to RDP to their desktop and a few intranet web sites. Some users need to be able to have that + some FTP capability. I can't see how to do that without creating a new vpn access policy. I haven't been able to find any videos/articles on how to put this together, and I need to deploy this within the week.

 

Thanks in advance!!

    Need to configure APM access policy for this. Not sure what you meant by the above.

    VPN is a part of the APM, and you have to create Network Access resource and assign it via Access Policy. But if you need RDP and a few websites, you can use RDP and Web Portal Access resources. For FTP you can configure Application Tunnels. This can improve usability and performance, but you still need an APM. There are some scenarios that can be implemented using LTM (Layered Virtual with backend servers pool, etc.), but it's not about VPN at all.

    In reply to both above, (using my other login), Thanks Alexey, and kunjan. I have figured out how to create the Access Policy, and attach to it the resources. I see that for each user, I have to have a unique RDP, and then when I assign the resources I have to use the AD query to single out the specific resources to display to the users. Thanks
