VPN Access Information
CNU uses GlobalProtect VPN to facilitate remote network access. This page contains all of the information and software needed to get your connection up and running. Currently, we only provide installers for Android, MacOS, and Windows x86 (32-bit or 64-bit) systems.
Note: If you need VPN access, first contact University IT, as you will not be able to download the files without permission from IT.
