FortiClient VPN replaced by Citrix

Tuesday, December 1st, 2020

Many of you have been using FortiClient VPN for quite some time to access to internal University services i.e. TeraTerm.  However, FortiClient is built on outdated technology which will no longer be available at the end of January 2021. If you are a Windows user, we recommend that you replace FortiClient with Citrix  Gateway as soon as possible.  Currently there is no support for all Linux versions at the moment but we are investigating possible solutions.

The new service has been made available by Information Technology for students and staff. Citrix Gateway will allow you to access internal, University network-based applications from the Internet. This service, as well as the University, is protected and secured by multi-factor authentication for identity verification and also requires that a device must meet specific security requirements before it is allowed on the University’s network.

Students and permanent staff can migrate to the new VPN service by going to their web browser to the site https://securevpn.sun.ac.za and follow the on-screen instructions.

SunID users can migrate to SU VPN MSP service by going to their web browser to the site https://suvpnmsp.sun.ac.za and follow the on-screen instructions.

Alternatively, you can log a request for assistance with the setup of VPN on the ICT Partner Portal.

WiFi access on campus

Tuesday, November 17th, 2020

Since the beginning of this year MatiesWiFi is no longer be available and all users will be required to use eduroam for wireless connections. 

The reason for this change is the necessity to move away from a less secure WiFi option (MatiesWiFi) to a more secure one where your data and identity are encrypted and protected (eduroam)

How to access eduroam if your device is already registered

If your device is already registered on SU WiFi network, namely MatiesWiFi or Secure, it will be able to connect to eduroam automatically. Just use your full username (xxxx@sun.ac.za ) and password to log in. Instead of MatiesWiFi or Secure select the eduroam network on your device’s WiFi settings. In order to access the internet via eduroam, you will still need to open your Inetkey.

Further instructions are available here.

How to access eduroam if your device is not registered

If your device is not registered for the SU WiFi network please use Registerme to do so. Each device must be registered on its own and you can register up to 5 devices on US WiFi network.

Take note that these instructions are only applicable if you want to register your device on the eduroam WiFi network. For other network registration please log a request on our ICT Partner Portal

Remember to request your Adobe license

Saturday, November 7th, 2020

To continue using Adobe DC users had to request a license before the end of November. From 1 December your Adobe DC software will no longer work, but you can still request a license by logging a request on the ICT Partner Portal

Adobe has changed the licensing model for all their products and the new model requires staff to have an Adobe ID to use the software.

Historically, a new serial number would be built into a software installation package which would have been centrally pushed out to all Stellenbosch University asset number machines.
This process would result in uninterrupted use of the software as had been the case for the last 4 years.

The new licensing model is based on named user licenses*. The new version of Adobe DC (Document Cloud), which Stellenbosch University has licensed for 2020 is therefore no longer based on serial numbers.  Named User Licensing is a software licensing model where software is assigned to an individual instead of a serial number or a device.

What are the benefits?

Whilst this is a major change in the way access to the software is managed, the new version and license model comes with a number of advantages including a secure login feature. The new model allows IT to provide end users access to the apps and services they demand for ongoing projects, while establishing the control that IT needs to meet the requirements of the organisation. IT also benefits from a simpler method to maintain compliance as well as management of licenses and services through the Adobe Admin Console.

Who qualifies for a license?

Licenses can only be assigned to a full time university staff member according our license policy. This licensing process is only for advanced users who edit and digitally sign PDF documents.  Users will still be able to make use of Adobe Reader. Users that do not edit or digitally sign PDF documents can request the installation of Adobe Reader via the ICT Partner Portal

To request a renewal of your Adobe license, please log a request on the ICT Partner Portal and a license will be assigned to you.

Please take note:

If you have requested a license and it has been assigned to you, you might still get a pop-up from Adobe asking for a serial number. To remove this, only close and log out of Adobe and log in again.

 

Annual Moodle maintenance

Wednesday, November 4th, 2020

Assessments and courses are running quite differently in 2020. As a result, the normal November/early December maintenance weekend has had to be adjusted.

Annual upgrade and maintenance period for Moodle will take place between 13 and 17 December 2020. This will include:

  1. SUNLearn
  2. StudentFeedback
  3. SUNOnline
  4. Learning Hub (USB)
  5. Schools (Telematic Schools Project)

Affected staff and students will be reminded of possible disruption in access, but the IT team will be working hard to ensure that this is kept to a minimum.

For lecturers, roll-over of 2020 modules will take place ahead of the scheduled maintenance. The CLT support team will communicate details of this to all faculties within the next week.
