Follow the instructions below to install and sign in to VPN access.
1. Navigate to https://vpn.nccu.edu in your web browser.

3. Click 'Download Mac 32/64 bit GlobalProtect agent' and then 'save file' to download the
installer.
4. Run the downloaded file. You will need your computer's admin username and password to install.
5. Once the client has been installed, the Global Protect icon will appear in the
menu bar at the top of your screen. Click the icon to set up the VPN connection.
6. Type vpn.nccu.edu into the Portal Address field and click Connect.

Privacy and then General, unlock the settings page using your Mac's administrator
username and password, and then Allow the computer to load the Palo Alto software
(Global Protect).
7. Sign in with your NCCU and password. Each time you log in, you'll receive a prompt to authenticate with Duo multi-factor authentication.
(check your phone or other multi-factor authentication devices for notifications).
