Introduction
This page documents the use of the SLAC VPN service.
Virtual Private Network (VPN) provides a secure connection between your computer and the resources available at your home institution. In the case of SLAC, we offer a VPN service that permits authorized users to gain visibility of SLAC network resources from outside of SLAC. This includes the SLAC Visitor Wireless network.This page documents the use of the SLAC VPN service
