Download and configure the new UCSD Virtual Private Network (VPN) AnyConnect client on your Windows 8 Desktop and Tablet for a conventional installation.
In the right place? If you only need to access common campus Web sites or remote desktop computing, use the VPN EasyConnect option. See instructions in Virtual Private Networks at UCSD.
