Can I use VPN to access the UCSF network and/or departmental resources if my computer is located on another organization’s network that is behind a firewall?
Yes, the basic functionality of the Web (SSL) vpn@UCSF service is communicated over standard web protocols and should work through almost all firewalls. The Network Connect utility may be restricted depending on the local security policy and might not function. I already have a VPN client installed on my PC. I want to make sure there will be no software compatibility issues. It is safe to use the Web (SSL) vpn@UCSF system if you have other VPN clients installed on your computer. We do not recommend attempting to use more than one VPN system at a time.
