We’ve seen where some computers try to sync massive amounts of data over your Internet connection after they detect being reconnected to campus.
By following these steps, GlobalProtect will request your username and password the next time you connect. Signing out of GlobalProtect is useful if you have changed your password or need to sign in with a different account.
If you’re unsure how to do this, please contact your phone manufacturer for assistance, as it is different for some phones.
Simply connect GlobalProtect first, then open your H: drive as you normally would. Let’s say you’re off-campus and need access to your H: drive. GlobalProtect is an application that creates a secure “tunnel” between your computer and the FHSU campus network over the Internet allowing your computer to think it’s on-campus. Do you need access to network drives, CICS, databases, or Lotus Notes while off-campus? Do you want to secure your Internet traffic while using a public hotspot? GlobalProtect makes that possible.
