- Where can you run Cisco AnyConnect? Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is available for multiple operating systems and versions. For instance, you can use the tool on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Mac OS, and Linux. Even when you’re away from your personal PC, you can continue using AnyConnect on different devices.
Two types of VPN are available:
- Default Stanford (split-tunnel). When using Stanford's VPN from home, we generally recommend using the Default Stanford split-tunnel VPN. This routes and encrypts all traffic going to Stanford sites and systems through the Stanford network as if you were on campus. All non-Stanford traffic proceeds to its destination directly.
- Full Traffic (non-split-tunnel). This encrypts all internet traffic from your computer but may inadvertently block you from using resources on your local network, such as a networked printer at home. If you are traveling or using wi-fi in an untrusted location like a coffee shop or hotel, you may wish to encrypt all of your internet traffic through the Full Traffic non-split-tunnel VPN to provide an additional layer of security.
You can select the type of VPN you want to use each time you connect to the Stanford Public VPN.
