SOFTWARE: Cisco Virtual Private Network (VPN) Client for Macintosh Version 4.9.01.0100
Description: OSUnet VPN service is designed as a solution for students, faculty and staff to be able to have remote usage to the OSUnet network that is authenticated and secure. This authentication is accomplished by a "client" VPN program which communicates with a server located at OSU.
Some networked services are not allowed from "off campus" networks due to security concerns. This VPN service offers a solution when these services are required by OSU faculty, staff or students. Individuals should work with their departmental Information Technology staff to determine if there is a need for this VPN service, as some departments block similar network services as well as additional services at the department level.
