This tutorial assumes that you are using VirtualBox 5.2.6
If you want to connect to JET machines via VPN you can use Virtual Machine. There are few benefits here:
- your network traffic doesn't go via JET's VPN - only one from Virtual Machine
- you don't have to install all the components by yourself
1. 1. Download and install Virtual Box
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
2. 2. Make sure to install Extension Pack
VirtualBox 5.2.6 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack - you can find it on Download page
3. 3. Download Virtual Machine from Gateway
$SWITMDIR/resources/jet/JETVPN.tar.gz
4. 4. Install JETVPN inside Virtual Box
5. 5. Start the machine
6.
7. 6. Log in into system inside Virtual Machine
user: jetvpn pass: jetvpn
8. 7. Start two Terminal sessions
We need two terminal sessions. One for VPN connection and another one for VNC client
9. 8. Start VPN tunnel
- in Terminal 1 make sure to change your user to root and establish tunnel
change user to root
su - # password for user root is: jetvpn
start tunnel by calling script ./connect.sh
./connect $USER_NAME # user name is exactly the same as one that you use in JET ... ... VPN account password:
once asked for password provide it in form
PPPPKKKKKK # where # PPPP is your PIN code # KKKKKK is a value from your RSA SecurID
- Tunnel should be up and running
10. 9. Start VPN connection
Inside Terminal 2 start script that runs VNC client
./vnc.sh
11. 10. Connect to target machine
Connect to target machine via VNC - as usual
