Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a secure way to connect to Western's network from home or while traveling. You need an existing internet connection before you can connect to our VPN server. VPN is useful for the following situations:

  • Some campus servers and resources require a VPN connection if you want to access them from off-campus. Mapped network drives are the most common example. You do not need to use VPN to access Canvas, your Western email, OneDrive, or other Office 365 apps.
    View a list of services that require VPN from off-campus.
  • If you are using a public Wi-Fi connection from somewhere like a hotel, cafe, foreign country, or airport, however, connecting to our VPN will add an additional layer of security, so you may want to connect to our VPN even if it is possible to access the services you need without it.
  • Some secure resources require VPN even when you are on campus, but only a small number of staff need VPN for this purpose.

Installation

Standard VPN Access from Off-Campus

Faculty, staff, and students can use this service from off-campus.

  1. Install VPN from off-campus using this link: https://remotevpn.wwu.edu.
    • This website is not accessible from Western's wired or wireless networks. Currently, Microsoft Edge (non-Chromium-based) does not load the installer correctly on or off of campus, so using Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chromium-based Edge or Safari is advised.
  2. When prompted, enter your Universal username and password.
  3. After you sign in, Windows and macOS users will be presented with a download button for the Cisco AnyConnect client.
    • Chromebook users will need to get the Cisco AnyConnect client from the Chrome Web Store, iOS users can get it from the Apple App Store, and Android users can get it from the Google Play Store.
  4. After installation, the client will automatically start and connect to WWU. Later, you can access the client by going to:
    • Windows: Start > Programs > Cisco
    • Mac: Applications > Cisco
    • When you click the Connect button, the client should connect automatically to the WWU VPN server. If the 'Connect to' field is blank, enter the address of the VPN server: remotevpn.wwu.edu

Administrative Services VPN (Admin VPN)

Faculty and staff who need to access to services listed in the Admin VPN section of our Do you need VPN? page need to fill out this VPN Access Esign form. Once your Esign form has been locked you can install the VPN client from the following location (Note that it is different from Standard VPN):

  2. When prompted, enter your Universal username and password.

Student Access to VPN

Beginning Spring 2020: All students now have access to use https://remotevpn.wwu.edu.

Full Tunnel or Split Tunnel?

As of November 2020, the following option is available for remotevpn.wwu.edu

  • When you are traveling, you generally want to select Full Tunnel so all of your network traffic is encrypted by the VPN.
  • When you are at home, Split-Tunnel may be the better option. Split Tunnel allows you to communicate with other devices on your local network, like networked printers. This option encrypts only the traffic between you and WWU systems.
    • If you are using software like Windows Remote Desktop to connect to your office computer from off-campus (or other remote computer like a laptop), you can use either split or full tunnel from the off-campus computer. If you remote into your office computer and need to use VPN on that computer (required for ODBC connections to databases behind our firewall) you must select Split Tunnel on your office/campus computer.

Important Considerations

Cisco Anyconnect Play Store

  • VPN is a shared resource with limited connections. Please make sure that you disconnect when not using this resource.
  • Avoid sensitive transactions like online banking and accessing any site where you need to provide personal information (e.g., passwords, SSN, date of birth) over public Wi-Fi.
  • Any service that you sign into using a Web browser should use encryption. Sites that use encryption are those that begin with https:// instead of http:// (note the “s” after “http”). An example is https://login.microsoftonline.com used for Office 365.
