VPN - Virtual Private Network
Introduction
Virtual Private Network (VPN) is used to connect computers to one virtual network, even if they are physically in different networks. Remote computers are connected to the NPI’s network using a secure encrypted channel. This connection enables access to resources available only from inside NPI.
You are able to access:
- the resources of the NPI network
- resources of the CAS network (eg. iFIS, Verso)
- to libraries (eg. www.ulrichsweb.serialssolutions.com, www.scopus.com)
