VPN-connection at DMJX
VPN or Virtual Private Network is the term for a technique used to create a connection to systems and services that would otherwise only be available if you were on one of DMJX’s campuses. The purpose of the VPN is therefore to make it possible and secure to access systems and services even if you are outside DMJX’s addresses and the wireless network.

A prerequisite for being able to log on to the VPN is that you have installed two-factor authentication. See the instructions – Click here >>

VPN – Mac
There is a new VPN connection at DMJX, so if you have a computer that the school does NOT manage AND you have installed the “old” VPN, then the old client must be uninstalled.
If you do NOT have the old client on your mac, you can proceed directly to “Installing the Cisco Secure client” – otherwise you must first uninstall the old client.
Uninstall the “old client”.
- Open “Apps” – You can find that from within your Finder.
- Then find the folder “Cisco” and then the program “Uninstall AnyConnect”
- Double-click on “Uninstall AnyConnect” and then uninstall the program.
Once the program is uninstalled, we need the new version on your computer.
