Version vom 27. März 2020, 12:49 Uhr

Die deutsche Version finden Sie auf der Seite VPN unter Android

Some services are only available through the university network. These include, for example, access to network drives and the download of online resources from the homepage of the University Library. If you want to access these services when you are not at the university, you need a VPN connection. A Virtual Private Network guarantees secure access to the university network through other networks.

What needs to be done?[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Install OpenVPN Connect from the PlayStore.
Install a personal network certificate
Download the configuration file:

Use the .ovpn configuration file and your personal network certificate to configure OpenVPN Connect.
Start a VPN connection.

Step-by-step instructions[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Install OpenVPN Connect[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Install the app OpenVPN Connect. Like other apps you can find it in the Google PlayStore

Install certificates[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

For the VPN connection you need a network certificate. You cannot use the already installed certificate for Eduroam. Open the ServicePortal and log in with your university account.

Click on the 3 vertical bars on the upper right corner
Click on User Management and then on Network Settings

Click on Create new certificate.

You should create a separate certificate for each device you use. Assign a unique identifier so that you know which certificate belongs to which device later on.
Then click on "Send new certificate".

Now click on Download network certificate.

To open the certificate, you need your Import Password. We have just copied it to the clipboard and can now paste it here.
Confirm with "OK"

In order to be able to recognize the certificate afterwards, you are requested to rename the certificate
Name it UPB
To use the login data, select "VPN and Apps"
Confirm with "OK"

Download configuration file[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Download the configuration file, select the VPN you want to connect to and click on Download. Usually "Uni-VPN (Standard)" should work, but if you have problems with the connection, try "Uni-VPN-TCP".
