'''If you have a UMIACS account, you already have access.'''
 
The UMIACS VPN is accessible through the Pulse Secure Client.  Alternatively, you can establish a connection through a web browser.
 
'''As of May 10th 2019, MFA Authentication is mandatory.'''
==Prerequisites==
* Device enrolled with [[Duo | UMIACS Duo]]
* macOS 10.11 or higher as of the current version of the Pulse Secure Client
 
== Connecting through the Pulse Secure client ==
#'''Download the client:'''

#:''Upon starting the client for the first time it will ask to upgrade the client.  This will pull an up-to-date version of the client with the most recent configuration.''
#'''Open the client and click 'Add' (+) under the connection section.'''
#:[[Image:JunosOSX.png|thumb|left|510px|[macOS] Click the 'Add' (+) button to create a new connection]]<br style="clear:both"/>

::The Pulse VPN multi-factor authentication implementation relies on a secondary authentication source to fulfill the [[Network/VPN/MFA | MFA]] requirement.  As a result, you will be prompted for credentials twice.

!Second Credential Password Value:
! Result
|-
| push
| Send a push verification to your Duo connected device
|-
| phone
| Send a call verification to your Duo connected device.
|-
| <press YubiKey>
| If you have a physical token then you would press the YubiKey for the one time password.

::Please note that registering a YubiKey for use with the VPN requires interaction with UMIACS Tech Staff. Please [[HelpDesk | contact us]] if you would like to register a YubiKey for this purpose.
 
 
{{Note|<b>Pro-tip:</b> Select ‘Save Settings’ on the secondary authentication prompt to have Duo automatically use your preferred method.}}
