Connect to BGSU Network on University Device via GlobalProtect VPN

Question

How do I connect to the BGSU network (via GlobalProtect VPN) from my university device while off-campus? 

Answer

Note: These steps are for using GobalProtect on a university-owned device. Using GlobalProtect will connect your computer directly to the BGSU network. Once connected you will be able to access the same sites you would only be able to access on campus.

Connect to GlobalProtect: 

  1. Ensure you are connected to your home Wi-Fi. 
  2. Disconnect from Pulse Secure. 
  3. Select and open the GlobalProtect application from your tool bar/task bar or Start Menu/Application Directory. 
  4. Enter bgsuvpn.gpcloudservice.com for the portal address if not already present. 
  5. Select Connect, if prompted. 
  6. Enter your BGSU username and password.  
  7. Authenticate via Duo Two Factor Authentication.
