Virtual Private Network (VPN)
http://www.creighton.edu/doit/vpn/index.php
Non-public or "secure" network resources at Creighton University may require a VPN connection.  Virtual Private Network (VPN) software allows you to connect to Creighton from off campus and act as if you were connected to the campus network for security or authentication purposes. All SPAHP computer images include the VPN software. To connect to the VPN double click the VPN icon on your desktop or go to Start> All Programs > Cisco Systems VPN Client (or Easy Access VPN Client) > VPN Client. If you are not able to locate the VPN on your computer the VPN software can also be downloaded from DoIT by clicking on the above URL. Please note: You will be asked to authenticate to the VPN when you connect. Please use your Blue credentials when prompted.
