09/18/2002: VPN Server Outage 09/19/02

On Thursday, September 18th, 2002, the pilot VPN server vpn.ucla.edu will be down for maintenance to install a new root certificate, between the hours of 4PM-7PM.

After 7PM on 09/18/02, you will need to visit the Wireless Pilot page at http://www.bol.ucla.edu/wireless/ in order to download a new root certificate. You will also need to follow the instructions on how to update the root certificate in the VPN client that you are using.

A root certificate allows you to communicate securely with the VPN server, by verifying the identity of the VPN server you are connecting to.

If you have any questions about the installation of the new root certificate in your VPN client, please contact the BOL Help Desk at (310) 825-7452, option 1, or via email to consult@ucla.edu
