In order to access to some university websites/services, users are required to be connected to the campus network. The "campus network" is defined as being connected to a university WiFi network (i.e., WIFI@OU), campus ethernet (wired) connection, or the OU VPN.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) creates a means for private communication between geographically distributed locations. The VPN offered by OU creates a secure connection between any remote site and assets on the OU network, such as HR Self Service, file servers, data stores, Virtual Labs, or other applications, which require access from a campus network.
Utilizing the VPN requires the use of PingID MFA. For information on PingID, plaese visit our PingID Multi-Factor Authentication and/or PingID Enrollment articles.
