EMS Reservation System, Use a VPN to connect when off-campus

When connecting to EMS from off-campus from a personal or university-provided device, a VPN connection is required.

Note: if you do not already have the VPN client installed on your device, it is available for free from the university WebStore and mobile app stores.

Follow the steps in this article: Cisco VPN, How to connect

Once connected, the EMS homepage will load successfully.

For assistance with the VPN, students may contact the Technology Services Help Desk at 217-244-7000 or consult@illinois.edu.
