Login into Sonicwall VPN through a .NET application

Question

I am currently trying to access a sonicwall VPN, inside of a .NET application. We have all the necessary credentials inside of our database, but I can't find a way to call the sonicwall inside a .NET application to start it. Does sonicwall have an api of any sort? Or does .NET have a way to access the sonicwall vpn? I have seen Remote Access Services but not sure if this library can access sonicwall vpns or just Windows VPNs.

Answer 1

The answer was simpler then the process I was trying.

You can launch sonicwall vpn client from the command line, and since you can do that obviously you can launch it through .NET using Process.start("path to client", "arguments")
