 You would use VPN if you have files or documents on the network servers that you want to access while you are off‐campus. VPN is also ideal if you want to use licensed student software applications such as Solidworks, Matlab or Cadence while away from campus. You can also use Remote Desktop to access your on‐campus desktop while using VPN.  Please note that internet speed will be slowed down due to resource limitations of the VPN gateway. You would use VPN if you have files or documents on the network servers that you want to access while you are off‐campus.
