MacOS:
Connect via the PriTunl Client
The Profile URI Link on the login page only lasts a few minutes, so unless you're really fast, you'll have to log in a second time. The instructions will guide you through that.
Go to pritunl.allenai.org
Select Sign in with Google
Select your @allenai.org GSuite account
Select Download Client, follow the installation instructions
Close the pritunl.allenai.org browser tab (see note above as to why)
Go back to pritunl.allenai.org and log in again
Open the Pritunl application
Copy the Profile URI Link
Start the PriTunl client (if it hasn't already been started)
Select Import Profile URI
Paste the URI and press Import
You can use the “hamburger” menu in the top right corner of each profile to connect to and disconnect from the VPN.
You will see three AI2 VPNs in the Pritunl client:
pritunl.allenai.org - This profile is intended for computers running MacOS. It will only route traffic destined for the corporate network through the VPN. All other traffic will continue to route through your local network.
pritunl.allenai.org-alltraffic - This profile is intended for computer running MacOS. This will route all traffic through the VPN. Some project team members (formerly VPT) may need this to connect to cloud resources. Use this only if you require it.
pritunl.allenai.org-windows - This profile is specifically configured to be used on Windows computers. It will only route traffic destined for the corporate network through the VPN. All other traffic will continue to route through your local network.
Windows Users:
If you are using a Windows laptop, you should be using the built in VPN protocol to log in. If you have not been set up to log in to your laptop via “Network Sign-in” please reach out to IT in the #it slack channel
Windows (Built in VPN solution)
Please review the Domain Join/VPN steps to set up your laptop to automatically connect to VPN on Windows. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to IT on the #it slack channel
