Virtual Private Network (VPN) Installation and Configuration
The VPN (virtual private network) allows off-campus individuals to connect to the campus remotely and use resources that are configured for on-site use only. This includes things such as printers, access to shared network drives (S:), or on-campus applications (such as Banner).
As part of Olds College's overall cyber security strategy, multi-factor authentication has been implemented on the FortiClient VPN connection. This requires a secondary method of authentication after entering your Olds College credentials when connecting to VPN, similar to the mandatory Google 2-step verification.
