VPN Access

Accessing IT4Innovations internal resources via VPN

Failed to initialize connection subsystem Win 8.1 - 02-10-15 MS patch
Workaround can be found at https://docs.it4i.cz/vpn-connection-fail-in-win-8.1

 

For using resources and licenses which are located at IT4Innovations local network, it is necessary to VPN connect to this network.
We use Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, which is supported on the following operating systems:

  • Windows XP
  • Windows Vista
  • Windows 7
  • Windows 8
  • Linux
  • MacOS

It is impossible to connect to VPN from other operating systems.

VPN client installation

You can install VPN client from web interface after successful login with LDAP credentials on address https://vpn1.it4i.cz/anselm

According to the Java settings after login, the client either automatically installs, or downloads installation file for your operating system. It is necessary to allow start of installation tool for automatic installation.

When you connect to the VPN for the first time, the client downloads the profile and creates a new item "ANSELM" in the connection list. For subsequent connections, it is not necessary to re-enter the URL address, but just select the corresponding item.
