How to get and use the campus VPN

IDG Managed and Unmanaged computers

The Cisco AnyConnect client software is typically pre-installed on laptops, running the IDG Managed Desktop product.

In the taskbar search box, type "cisco" or "anyconnect" which should locate the program.

Once the Cisco AnyConnect client program loads, it offers a login box.

For Staff and PGR Students, type: campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk/staff to connect.

For UG and PGT Students, type: campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk/student to connect.

Please remember to disconnect when not using the service.

Note: If you DO NOT have the Cisco AnyConnect client software installed, it can be obtained by connecting to your browser, and entering the URL:

https://campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk/staffLink opens in a new window (for Staff & PGR Students only)

https://campusvpn.warwick.ac.uk/studentLink opens in a new window (for UG and PGT Students only)

Please remember to check:

If you DO NOT already have access to the VPN, and require access, you will need to complete the Help Desk
