For security reasons, the network of the West Pomeranian University of Technology is protected by a firewall. Therefore, some services are available only within the University Computer Network (UCN). In order to enable employees to access these resources in a place outside the university, the WPUT University IT Centre has launched a virtual private network server. Once a virtual private network connection has been set up on your computer (home computer, laptop computer, or other university/company at a conference, etc.), you can access the full UCN resources (all transmission to the UCN network will be encrypted) as well as faculty network resources that are not accessible from the Internet (and you can still use the Internet).
In particular, the following services can be used:
1. application server - only WPUT staff
2. library services - WPUT staff and students
3. network licensed software - only WPUT staff
Data necessary for configuration of the connection:
· server address: vpn3.zut.edu.pl
· your password and ID of the WPUT University Computer Network user (the same as for the e-mail server).
