A virtual private network (VPN) is a private data network
that makes use of the public telecommunication infrastructure,
maintaining privacy through the use of tunneling protocol
and security procedures.
VPN access is useful for CFHC staff and students who use
a commercial Internet connection service and wish to access
the CFHC resources (the library's
electronic resources).
Note: Your computer will not be accessible
from the local LAN when you are connected to the VPN services.
IT Services have released a new service for staff and student
wireless network access. The service runs on the CIHE wireless
network and is currently accessible via registered accounts.
Authentication is via a registered MAC address. The service
is primarily aimed at supporting Internet access and making
use of electronic resources provided by Library.
Please note that for security reasons, home directory and
shared drives are not accessible via CIHE Wireless LAN Service.
