Vidyo at CERN

Vidyo allows users to make point-to-point calls or multipoint videoconference meetings from their desktop machines, tablets and smartphones, H323/SIP equipped meeting rooms and from traditional phone lines. Read more about at CERN

CERN Vidyoportal page: http://vidyoportal.cern.ch

Test your vidyo-client without user account (as guest):

http://information-technology.web.cern.ch/services/fe/vidyo/howto/users-test-your-setup

or with this direct link (if still available) :

 https://vidyoportal.cern.ch/flex.html?roomdirect.html&key=HCfF187Bk9EG

This is also the place where you can download the client software (after login).

Vidyo Client

Linux

If you like to use the vidyo-client called VidyoDesktop for Linux inside the KIP-Network,

you need to establish a connection (e.g. to the CERN Vidyoportal)

over KIP-VPN-INTERN - Virtual Private Network (because of firewall security reasons).


In this case the procedure is as follows:

1. get access to the KIP-VPN-INTERN (unlock for you KIP-Account) => send email to: edv@kip.uni-heidelberg.de


2. install and configure the OpenVPN-Client => https://portal.kip.uni-heidelberg.de/kip-vpn-intern

OpenVPN

For Debian and Ubuntu Distributions the OpenVPN-Client-Package is the repository. Install with:

aptitude install openvpn

Then download and extract the kip_vpn_intern.zip Archive.

Copy the configfile: kip_vpn_intern.conf and the folder: certs to the configuration directory /etc/openvpn

You can also place the kip_vpn_intern.conf wherever you want, because you have to specify it as an option

To start OpenVPN enter (as root):

openvpn /your-path-to/kip_vpn_intern.conf
