VPN - Installing and configuring the GlobalProtect client
This document contains links to the GlobalProtect installation instructions. A VPN or Virtual Private Network through GlobalProtect from Palo Alto Networks allows UW–Madison faculty, staff and students to access University resources even when they are using a commercial Internet Service Provider (ISP). It accomplishes this by encrypting internet traffic between a home/remote personal or work computer/laptop and the campus network. All traffic from the client is routed through the tunnel with a campus IP address, making that traffic appear to be originating from on-campus.
Audience
Entomology, Plant Pathology, and Forest & Wildlife faculty, students, and staff; Hub staff
