We have also implemented a VPN (Virtual Private Network) server. Using the
VPN Client software allows users to communicate via a secure network
connection.
VPN software is useful if you are using an unsecured wireless network, such
as Dartmouth Library Public or Dartmouth Public, where the
traffic between your computer and the wireless access point is not encrypted,
or if you are off campus and are using an Internet Service Provider (ISP) other
than Dartmouth (at a hotel or an airport, for example). See Connecting
from Off Campus.
When you have any doubt about the security of your connection, use the
VPN.
