Once the software is installed, make sure it’s configured correctly. Once it’s configured, it should keep the same settings each time they use the software. Follow these steps:

  1. Open Cisco AnyConnect (the VPN software)

  2. In the address field, type in “vpn.calbaptist.edu” and click “Connect”.

  3. Set the group to: CBU-SSLVPN

  4. Sign in with your InsideCBU login credentials.

  5. The VPN service is now connected. You can now access company resources and files on the CBU network.

  6. Once you are connected to the VPN and you do not see your Shared or Mapped Drives, Open up File explorer and type the following link and hit enter. This will start the Desktop Authority program that will add those shared locations to your laptop. Please allow up to 1-2 minutes for this to run depending on your internet speeds.
