Palo Alto VPN Windows Client Install
Below are steps for installing the VPN client that IWU currently utilizes.
Please note that some laptops may already have the Palo Alto GlobalProtect VPN program installed. To check whether it is already on your computer follow the first step under the 'Setting Up and Using GlobalProtect' section below. Essentially, if you see the GlobalProtect icon it means it is already installed and as such you can skip the installing instructions.

- Double-click the 'Application Catalog' shortcut icon on your IWU computer desktop.

Setting Up and Using GlobalProtect
1. Once GlobalProtect is installed select the white arrow at the bottom-right of your screen followed by the GlobalProtect icon.
2. Enter webvpn.indwes.edu in the blank field.
3. Click the Connect button.
4. Enter your credentials when prompted and select 'Sign In'.
5. When GlobalProtect says "Connecting" you'll receive a call or "push" notification to your mobile device from Duo. It is helpful here to note that the GlobalProtect program itself will not indicate anything about it utilizing Duo.
