Connecting!to!the!CLASS%VPN%Gateway!!

CLASS!is!a!web6based!application,!and!for!additional!security!CLASS!can!only!be!accessed!from!within!your!

office!network.!!Each!office’s!Internet!network!is!‘whitelisted’!by!CLASS!to!allow!each!through!the!security!

gateway,!which!means!the!rest!of!the!world!can!be!locked!out.!This!is!a!highly!effective!security!approach.!!

However!there!are!some!Centres!and!users!that!for!various!reasons!will!require!‘Remote’!access!from!

outside!the!office.!Examples!include!where!workers!need!to!access!CLASS!in!remote!locations!such!as!when!

working!in!Outreach!locations!or!regularly!from!courtrooms!or!tribunals.!!There!are!also!a!handful!of!

centres!that!are!unable!to!provide!the!required!static!configuration!details!that!are!needed!for!office!

security!set!up.!

Consequently!there!is!a!second!method!of!accessing!CLASS,!via!a!method!called!a!Virtual+Private+Network+

(VPN).++

But+remote+access+requires+particularly+vigilant+standards+of+individual+user+online+and+personal+security,+

as+users!can!easily!be!in!danger!of!a!creating!a!serious!breach!of!privacy!and!legal!practice!standards.+For!

example,+devices!(laptops!/!tablets!etc.)!accessing!CLASS!cannot!be!left!by!themselves,!as!this!could!risk!

outsiders!gaining!access!to!the!CLASS!database.!Screens!should!be!set!to!fade!to!blank!soon!after!no!use,!

(using!screensaver!technology)!and!devices!should!also!become!password!lockable!on!very!short!

timeframes,!using!security!set!ups.!!

To+gain+VPN+Access+

Step+1)!Centre!Senior!Staff!must!approve!Access,!and!acknowledge!that!User!is!aware!of!enhanced!security!

standards.!!!

Step+2)+CLASS!admins!(or!CLASS!Helpdesk)!can!then!create!a!User!Account!VPN!name!and!password,!from!

the!User!Account!page!in!CLASS.!A!time!limit!can!be!set!up!in!this!process,!e.g.!for!3!months!–!this!is!

recommended.!!

Step+3)+Any!device!that!will!be!used!to!connect!to!CLASS!will!need!to!have!a!VPN!set!up!configured!using!

the!VPN!Name!and!Password.!This!must!be!connected!before!accessing!CLASS!(and!it!is!recommended!

disconnected,!when!not!using!CLASS)!

Step+4)+Once!connected!via!the!VPN,!the!user!will!be!able!to!access!the!CLASS!login!page,!and!will!use!their!

CLASS!username!and!password!(NOTE:!This!not!the!same!as!their!VPN!Name!and!password)!to!log!into!

their!centre.++

The!rest!of!this!describes!the!process!of!setting!up!the!VPN!for!commonly!used!devices!/!operating!
