Connect Securely From Off-Campus

 

Why Might I Need to Use the VPN?

The VPN gateway is a network access service which permits remote systems to access the ND network as if they were physically located on the ND campus network.  In technical terms, it allows remote systems to obtain a campus IP address, for purposes of access to certain restricted on-campus systems.

You should use the VPN when:

  • Connecting to any "public" network, such as a wireless hotspot in a hotel, restaurant or airport.
  • Using any campus IT services from off-campus, with the exception of WebFile and e-mail.

Please choose the client instructions appropriate for your operating system and affiliation:
