Q: I previously had access to custom VPN profiles, how do I access these?
You will need to contact the IT Service Desk for custom instructions.
Q: I have been using an alternate VPN client to connect, will I need to use AnyConnect with MFA?
Yes, other client access will stop working when the old VPN servers are retired so AnyConnect will be required.
Q: Do I need to install the Microsoft Authenticator App if I elect to receive my verification code by SMS?
No, however reliance on SMS/text code can be an issue if you are in an area with poor mobile reception.
