Updating Global protect software
To keep your college issued computer up to date and protected, we will be upgrading the VPN software (GlobalProtect). The upgrade process will disrupt connectivity; thus, we are encouraging you to manually initiate the upgrade process prior to devices being automatically upgraded. To perform the upgrade manually, follow these steps. Please allow 5 minutes in your schedule as this process will briefly disrupt connectivity.
1. Open the GlobalProtect VPN from the system tray |
|
2. Select the menu in the upper right corner |
|
3. Select "About" from the menu |
|
4. Select "Check for updates" |
|
5. Select "yes" to initiate software download |
|
6. Select "yes" again to initiate the software installation |
|
7. Within 60 seconds the software installation will complete. You may be prompted to login. |
