Information on the Microsoft Windows VPN Client

The Microsoft Windows Operating System has a built in VPN Client which can be used to connect to the OIT VPN Server. The built in VPN Client comes with Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. The Windows built in VPN client, while it will connect to the VPN Server does not support encryption.
In order to use the built in Microsoft Windows VPN Client you may need to install additional software which should be available on the CD which came with your particular Operating System.

The following documentation is available to assist users with configuring the VPN client on all supported Microsoft platforms.

NOTE: Use of this client is discouraged because the connection created with the VPN is not secure.
