Does anybody know why or noticed the download for "Mobile VPN with SSL 12.11 for Windows" is 170Mb vs previous versions (12.10.4 2.72Mb) and (12.7.2 2.25Mb)

Its absolutely massive?

    From the V12.11 Release Notes:
    . The Mobile VPN with SSL Client for Windows now supports SAML authentication.

    The additional file size is to provide support for SAML authentication for SSLVPN.

    More specifically it contains an Edge Redistributable runtime which gets installed as part of the SSL VPN installer.

    Would have been nice to use the existing OS hooks (to leverage the existing login session etc), but at the same time there must be some reason WatchGuard chose to use a separate runtime as well.
