(Looking for the VPN for Students page?)
Before you start, you must have access to an Authenticator app. This is typically a mobile phone app that can generate six-digit verification codes to allow multi-factor authentication.
How do I connect to the employee VPN?
Enroll at https://otp.winona.edu/enroll
- You must have access to an Authenticator app. This is typically a mobile phone app that can generate six-digit verification codes to allow multi-factor authentication.
- Ensure your computer is connected to the Wazoo wireless network on campus
- If you are on a desktop computer your wired network connection should suffice
- All employees must start by setting up their One-Time Password (OTP) at this link while on campus: https://otp.winona.edu/enroll
- Once on that page, enter your StarID in the Username field
- Enter your network password on the next screen
- Click Add OAUTH Token
- Click the box next to Online then click Add
- On the next page, scan the QR code with the authenticator app of your choice
- You MUST click 'Done' after you scan your QR code!
