Aktuelle Version vom 16. Dezember 2024, 14:49 Uhr
Die deutsche Version finden Sie auf der Seite VPN unter iOS
If you cannot connect to OpenVPN and receive the error message "UNKNOWN/UNSUPPORTED OPTIONS": You can only use the OpenVPN app from version 3.4 if you have installed the current configuration file. You can find instructions on how to do this in the Import configuration file section. You do not need to install a new user certificate.
These instructions show you how to set up a VPN connection to the university network on the iPhone and iPad.
A Virtual Private Network ensures secure access to the university network from external networks.
Certain services are only available from the university network. This includes, for example, accessing network drives and downloading online resources from the university library homepage.
Do you want to access these services and are not at university? Then you need a VPN connection.
Simultaneous connections[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
🛈
Do you want to connect your laptop and your mobile phone to the VPN in addition to your PC? You can set up VPN connections on multiple devices. However, each person can only establish one connection per VPN at the same time.
What does that mean?
Uni-VPN

- You cannot establish a connection to the Uni-VPN on another device at the same time.
- You must disconnect the existing connection first.
Group VPN
- If you use a group VPN, you cannot establish a second VPN connection to this group VPN on another device at the same time.
- You must disconnect the existing connection first.
