Remote access (VPN)

For remote access, a tunnel is set up from your own computer to the gateway. This checks your authorization using the login ID and password. After successful authentication, you will temporarily receive a university IP address that will be used during the session.

Note

The remote access does not work from within the network of the university hospital.

Windows

Use the Microsoft SSTP already included with Windows.
