-====== VPN client ======
-With every connection the [[en:support:wlan:vpn|VPN]] client establishes a highly encrypted tunnel. With this SSL-encrypted tunnel to Cisco gateways communication can be protected from the access by third parties.
-You can find all information of how to use the VPN client on the [[http://www.gwdg.de/index.php?id=754&L=1|GoeMobile website]].
-======= Why using the VPN client? =======
-Because the Wi-Fi network GoeMobile is unencrypted, you should use the VPN client to establish an [[en:support:wlan:verschluesselung|encrypted connection]] to protect your data. Additionally, you will automatically recieve an IP from university to gain access to the university network.
-====== Cisco AnyConnect ======
-The configuration of Cisco AnyConnect is the easiest and most popular way of establishing an encrypted connection via VPN. In the following you can find the instruction of how to install and use the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client.
-==== Installation ====
-The installation has the following three steps:
-. Open your browser and go to http://vpn.gwdg.de/ and log in with your username (firstname.lastname@stud.uni-goettingen.de) and password.
-. Now the auto detection of the installed Java-version (or in the Internet Explorer: ActiveX) launches. \\

-The file must be downloaded and executed to start installation. In most cases installation has to be allowed by request of the firewall.
-c)...an installation through ActiveX is possible and confirmed by the user the installation starts directly.
-After installation the client starts. **For the connection enter vpn.gwdg.de and log in with your university email-address and password.**
