What is the VPN client used for?

The VPN client is used to authenticate the individual user in our network and at the same time enables the user to access university resources from home.

When do I need the VPN client?

There are two scenarios for which you need the VPN client:

  1. You are in the WLAN unibas-public and want to access internal services from the University of Basel or the Faculty for Psychology. If you only require Internet access, use the eduroam network (see above).
  2. You are at home and want to access your data on university servers or use university library services (e.g. e-journals).

RDS access is graded to operate applications that are not installed locally on the computer. The user establishes a connection with the so-called Windows Terminal Server and the graded application is automatically started there. SAP GUI (SAP Graphical User Interface), for example, is one of these applications.
