A Phone with the DUO App is required to use the UT VPN client.

If you are on a PRC-managed desktop, please email help@prc.utexas.edu to install the UT VPN client. PRC-managed laptops already have the UT VPN client installed.

  1. Locate the VPN Client icon and connect to the UT VPN.
  2. When VPN starts for the first time it will ask for the VPN server name. Type in vpn.utexas.edu. Click connect.
