Nortel VPN Client Overview

[ad_1]

• The Nortel VPN Client creates the secure connection for VPN users into a private network.

• Once you log in through iPass and receive the iPass screen, you are now authenticating through the Nortel VPN, and not iPass.

• If this is your first time connecting, or your pin has been reset, you will enter only your username, and token ID.

• The PIN field should be blank. If you have connected before, you will enter the username, PIN, and token ID.

• Once you are ready to connect you will click the Connect button. You may be asked if you want to save the connection if this is your first time connecting. (Note you should choose YES)

• If it is not your first time, or the PIN has not been reset, you will simply be connected at this point.

• Enter a 4 – 8 digit pin in the response field. Once the pin is accepted you will enter the PIN + Token ID on subsequent connections.

• VPN Error Message Your Token Code Is No Longer Valid

• Contivity VPN Client: Your Token Code is no longer valid. Please enter new Token Code information.

  You will get this message if the token code changed just before you pressed Enter or Connect.

  At the very left edge of the display window of your token, you see a column of several small horizontal bars.

  The longer the token code is displayed, the fewer bars you see.

  Right after the code changes, you see six bars. When you see only one bar, wait a few seconds for the code to change before entering it into the prompt on your screen.
