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
