I think what you are trying to do may not be possible. These dongles are not so complex in design, they are made for ease of use and as such they do not have features to restrict where they can be used or not.

The only feasibel way it to configure your platform such than only the designated laptops can connect from the outside by VPN by using the MAC (Physical) address of the laptops cards as well as the dongles MAC address. This will atleast ensure who ever is connecting to yo

Guys,

 

I guess I should have indicated what the problem was in more detail…

 

I have users accessing a restricted platform on a laptop. This platform gives them access to a vpn among other things. When the users are on the field, they need access to the net to enable a connection to the vpn, thus we give them a dongol.

 

They obviously require the pin to operate. But I don’t want them using the dongol on any other pc except that restricted laptop.

 

Zuhair.
