How to Add the Correct Serv Tab to a Departmental VPN Permit

The permit chosen to tie a group of NetIDs to an IP pool must be configured to allow permit queries by the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server, in the process of handling authentication requests, identifies itself to permit with a Kerberos principal. It is that principal that will be granted query access to your permit.

  1. Connect to https://paw1.cit.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/permit.cgi.
  2. When prompted, in the NetID box, enter your NetID. In the Password box, enter your NetID password, and then click Login.
