Set up VPN on a State-Issued Computer
Cal Poly’s Virtual Private Network (VPN) service allows faculty, staff, and students to access campus technology resources securely.
Items to consider BEFORE connecting to the Global Protect VPN client on your computer:
You must be enrolled in Multi-Factor Authentication (Duo) before setting up VPN.
The GlobalProtect VPN app uses your default browser for you to input your login information and to display messages related to connectivity. (Learn more about changing your default browser on Mac, or Windows)
Department email accounts will not connect to the VPN. Connect using your personal Cal Poly account.
