Installation

From the Fortinet downloads page,  https://links.fortinet.com/forticlient/win/vpnagent , download the installer ‘FortiClientVPNOnlineInstaller.exe’. Right-click and choose ‘Run-as Administrator’ from the menu. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.

Once installed start FortiClient, if prompted, agree to the terms of use and then proceed to setup a VPN configuration.

Configuration

Download the configuration for the FMRIB VPN from our registration site:

https://register.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/registration/help#vpn-config

Assuming it has been downloaded to your Downloads folder, open a command prompt as an administrator (use Windows Search to search for 'cmd' - do not hit enter, on the right you should see some options - second one is 'Run as administrator').

In the command prompt window enter the command:

"C:\Program Files\Fortinet\FortiClient\FCConfig.exe -m vpn -f "C:\Users\<yourusername>\Downloads\fcconf-user.xml" -o import

replacing <yourusername> with your Windows computer user name.

You can now use the FMRIBUser VPN configuration to log in with your University Single Sign-On.
