Testing your VPN Connection

There are a couple ways to test that the VPN has been established and is functioning correctly.

  1. Your VPN is active if you can get to https://documents.triumf.ca.

    If you receive the following message, then the VPN connection is not set:

    WARNING: This method of off-site access is depecated. User the VPN portal...

  2. From a shell type: traceroute www.triumf.ca. The first line should contain .triumf.ca (base.vpn.triumf.ca in the example below):

$ traceroute www.triumf.ca
traceroute to www.triumf.ca (142.90.89.35), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
