Click on "Configure VPN"
The Client is able to establish different types of VPN connections so make sure "SSL-VPN" is selected. The configuration for our standard VPN connection should look something like this:
| VPN | SSL-VPN | Type of VPN connection. Should be "SSL-VPN" |
| Connection Name | SSL-VPN FRA-UAS pub-all | Can be freely selected |
| Description | Can be freely selected | |
| Remote Gateway | vpngate.frankfurt-university.de/pub-all | Gateway address. The "Realm" (VPN tunnel name) follows the slash / In most cases the realm is pub-all but it may differ when using a different tunnel. The port may also be customized but in this case just leave it at 443 (default). "Enable Single Sign On (SSO) for VPN Tunnel" can be ignored (default). |
| Client Certificate | None | Certificate used for authentication. In this case no certificate is used (default) |
| Authentication | Prompt on login/save login | You may choose to save the login information. "Enable Dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 address" can be ignored (default) as we currently do not support IPv6. |
Click on "Save" to save the configuration. Subsequently the connection can be established.
At the Startpage you will find the connection. Enter the login information for your CIT-Account and click on "Connect". When successfully connected you will be shown something like this:
