Configuring Android devices for off-campus access

*** For security purposes remote access from any portable device is restricted to terminal services mode.  No company data is allowed to leave the server, remote printing is prohibited, and no local drive/USB redirection is permitted during your session. ***

The setup and installation is broken down into three parts

• Installation (both Checkpoint Mobile VPN & 2X Client)
• Configuration
• Connection

Installation (Checkpoint Mobile VPN and 2X Client)

1.  To connect to the DENSO network from an Android device you will need two apps from Google Play.  The first of which is required, the second is your choice.  As with any mobile application, it becomes more of a personal preference as to which one you choose.  We will recommend one that is tested and approved, but you are not limited to using the app we recommend.  However if you use an app that is one other than what we recommend, we will not support it so use at your own risk.  Download and install the following.

Required		Recommended
Download Capsule VPN		Download Microsoft Remote Desktop Client App

Configuration (Capsule VPN)

– -At any time, you can click to zoom on any of these screenshots- –

1.  Assuming you have installed the two apps in the installation section, you should find two icons on your Android home screen that look like this.

2.  Launch the Capsule VPN app  and you will see this screen.  Click “Create new site”.

3.  Click the scan button at the top right.

4.  Scan this barcode as seen here.  If you are on your Android tablet while following these instructions you won’t be able to scan this barcode.  If so ignore scanning the barcode and touch this link to import the configuration and proceed to step 5.

The necessary configuration is now complete to connect the VPN to DENSO.

Configuration (Microsoft Remote Desktop Client)

1.  Assuming you have installed the two apps in the installation section, you should find two icons on your Android home screen that look like this.

2.  Launch the MS Remote Desktop Client app  and you may see the following screen on first time launch.  Click OK.

3.  Close “What’s new” screen and Touch the “Remote Desktops” button.

4.  Configure the fields as seen below, note there is one for each TAC affiliate so choose the correct screenshot.  In the User Name section be sure to input your username in the format tac\username where username is your actual network userID.   Once you are done touch “Save” in the upper right hand corner.

5.   You have now completed the necessary configuration to connect to the DENSO Terminal Server.

Connection

The connect process is a two step process.  First is the VPN that connects your Android device to DENSO, and second the remote desktop application which connects you to the terminal server.  This process needs to happen each time you want to connect to DENSO.

Step 1

1.  From the home screen of your Android device, touch the Capsule VPN app .

In the screenshot below fill in the fields with your network userid, RSA 4 digit PIN, and RSA SecurID tokencode.  Click Connect.

Then check box to trust application. Click OK

2.  When the connection is complete you will see the following.   Touch the home button to go back to the home screen.

 Step 2

** We recommend rotating your tablet to landscape before you connect, the connection to DENSO  is much more user friendly in landscape view. **

1.  From the home screen of your Android device, touch the Microsoft Remote Desktop Client app    .

2.  Touch the “DENSO” alias.

3.  The VPN will ask you for your network password.  Input it into the field and touch OK.

Select “Trust Always”

4.  If you entered your password correctly you will be logged into the terminal server and can now begin working.
