The VPN service enables access to university resources by creating a secure, encrypted connection between off-campus computing devices and the campus network. The VPN portal has been used to access websites. ITS is making changes to the service that will require us to disable this functionality on November 1. The Pulse Secure VPN desktop and mobile client will not be impacted.
There are other ways to access these websites that are better supported and provide a better experience.
- Try checking the access to websites via your regular browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari). Many websites have been modified so that you can access them off-campus by logging in with your NetID credentials.
- Use the Pulse Secure VPN Client installed on your PC, MAC, iOS, or Android device. Instructions are available at http://s.uconn.edu/vpn
- Use the browsers offered in UConn AnyWare to access the site: http://s.uconn.edu/anyware
