Only need by those with a GuestID, not by those with a NetID. Chemistry uses Cornell's VPN service to provision our "departmental" VPN, @AS-CHM-DeptVPN (CAPS-sensitive!).

Usage information

  • YourGuestID@AS-CHM-DeptVPN
    • Note: The departmental VPN's name <AS-CHM-DeptVPN> is CAPS-sensitive!

Detailed instructions for using departmental VPNs are in-line with Cornell's VPN instructions:

Use-cases in Chemistry

Some (mostly non-NMR ones) are listed within our Sponsored NetID inventory page:

Specific examples:

  • NMR has about 3 users who have GuestIDs, not NetIDs, and need SSH access to their results.
  • Freed group's access from Israel to their 93GHz computer, via one GuestID.
  • Chemistry IT, for the Stockroom POS's support, has one for Brightworks.

For Chemistry IT staff

CU AD's location of our departmental VPN object, which is needed to manage the members who can use it (exclusively GuestID's, in our case):

  • cornell.edu/DelegatedObjects/AS/UnitObjects/AS-Managed/Science/Chemistry - CHM/AS-CHM-DeptVPN

Sample instructions

  • Adapted from ticket <INC000001821158>

Perhaps I can help get your VPN access working by insuring you have the right instructions:

For connecting, once you have the software properly installed, be sure you are following the directions specific to "departmental VPN", not just Cornell's top-level VPN. For example, here are instructions for connecting from Windows:

https://it.cornell.edu/cuvpn/connect-windows

(1) As you know, your GuestID is: <gid-your-GuestID-name>
Use the password you set up for this GuestID when you activated it.

(2) Our departmental VPN is: AS-CHM-DeptVPN

Thus, for VPN access, the full name you will use is:

gid-your-GuestID-name@AS-CHM-DeptVPN

If you are still having problems, can you tell me which of the above steps is not working? Thank you.
