Accelerator Remote Access

Two-Factor Authentication

Access to Accelerator computers (opsll, devll, etc..) and other Accelerator subnets from the general CUE/CST networks and from your home requires two-factor authentication.

If you need to access Accelerator systems remotely please file an ACE ServiceNow and select the "CryptoCard/MobilePASS" subcategory and request your Yubikey (preferred) be added to your account or a MobilePass token. For the Yubikey option, please provide the numbers printed on the bottom of the USB fob. Alternately, if the CST Help Desk is more convenient for your location you can file a CST ServiceNow with the same request and choose the "Desktop Support" category.

Useful Tools

The following are scripts and bundles designed to make the connection process more simple. The idea is that you can simply install/unzip these and run them without any configuration. Note: It is adviseable to move the extracted folder to your Desktop or ensure that there are no spaces in the path to the Windows bundle.

Please note, if Windows security warns you about running these tools the first time, you must click "More Info" and allow. Likewise, under MacOS, you might need to "Right-Click and Run" the first time.
