VPN

Connect to campus remotely

To connect to campus remotely, you'll need three pieces of technology:

• Access to the internet
• Ivanti Secure Access SSL VPN software
• Duo

Access to the internet

This can be a device connected to the internet at home, or a wireless network at your present location. This connection will dictate the speed and performance of a remote connection to the campus. If you have poor service, then you can expect slow performance.

Ivanti Secure Access SSL VPN software

This software is required to create a virtual private network between your remote device and the universty's network. If your device does not have Ivanti Secure Access software, you can download and install this software from IUware.

Log in to IUware with your IU credentials and then enter "Ivanti Secure Access SSL VPN" into the search bar. Select "Ivanti Secure Access Client (Replacing Pulse Secure) (Windows, Mac, Linux)."

Select the appropriate version of the software for the device you are using. The installation software will download to your device. Then, locate the software (look in the downloads folder) and install it.

Next, set up the VPN.

Duo

Duo provides an additional layer of security when you log in at IU. Also known as two-factor authentication, this helps protect sensitive data and guard against increasingly sophisticated email and online scams (for example, phishing attacks that can leave you vulnerable to identity theft. IU has partnered with Duo to provide this service.

You will need to have Duo setup to access a six-digit code to complete the VPN access to the university's network. To do this, you will either need to use a Duo token, or the Duo app on your phone or tablet.
