| + | Please refer to TopDesk for VPN Support |
| | | |
− | To work on Viper remotely off-campus, you will need to set up a VPN connection.
| |
− |
| |
− | A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a method of extending a private network (such as the University) over a public network (such as the Internet). It enables you to send and receive data across a public network as though you were directly connected to the private network in a secure way.
| |
− |
| |
− | The University VPN service operates using a 'split-tunnel' policy. This means:
| |
− |
| |
− | *Network traffic to/from University-hosted resources will be handled by the VPN connection.
| |
− | *Connectivity to your local network and the Internet will continue as normal.
| |
− | *Geo-located services will not be affected. For e.g. the Google Australia page will appear if you connect from Australia.
| |
− | *The University does not track or log your activity outside of its jurisdiction.
| |
− |
| |
− | For security and compliance reasons, not all on-campus services are available via a VPN connection. If you cannot access the service while using the VPN; please contact the [https://support.hull.ac.uk/ Support Portal].
