Computer Access

Usually students can use the ECE computers by physically go to the computer lab (this is obviously not possible right now). Thus we have to remote-connect into the computers using SSH clients and remote desktop.

VPN Access

In order to connect to the ECE-SOC computers via SSH or remote desktop, you need to be on UBC myVPN.

If you’re using Windows and Mac, you can use Cisco AnyConnect:

• Download Cisco AnyConnect
• Connect to myvpn.ubc.ca and enter your CWL information.

If you’re on Linux, follow the UBC IT tutorial for OpenConnect: https://it.ubc.ca/services/email-voice-internet/myvpn/myvpn-setup-gnulinux

Remote Desktop

The remote desktop client we’re using is x2go. Details on how to set it up is located on ECE wiki: https://help.ece.ubc.ca/X2go.
