With your eToken, you can:
- Access the Dartmouth Secure wireless network with the exception of Mac OS 10.5.
- Access protected Web pages or central systems that are protected by eToken access. Currently, BannerStudent and Blackboard allow, but do not require, eToken access.
- Get VPN access while on or off campus with the exception of Mac OS 10.5 with the Juniper VPN.
- Sign your e-mail using your Dartmouth PKI certificate that is stored on your hardware token.
- Encrypt your e-mail with your PKI certificate. Using your eToken for this can be risky, because if you lose your eToken, you may not be able to read any of the encrypted e-mail in your In Box. But, it is quite useful to send somebody a quick note with a password or a note that does not need to be preserved.
Note: Both of the above e-mail applications (sign and encrypt) will work on Macintosh and Windows computers. You just need an S/MIME compatible e-mail client, such as Thunderbird. The BlitzMail client on Windows is not S/MIME compatible at this time. However, the latest version of BlitzMail for the Macintosh (2.9) is S/MIME compliant.
