Open the GlobalProtect client by clicking on the tasktray icon shown in the installation section. It provides further security by creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN), which is like a “secure tunnel” through which all communication between the user PC and Ryerson must pass. Ensure installation from 'Installing the Network Software' has been completed. To use Student VPN, you will need to install and use client software called GlobalProtect which allows authorized users access. Use Student VPN for a secure connection to Ryerson's Student Labs and other course-specific systems via the Internet.
