1 Installation and Configuration of VPN Software for Remote Spat Systems These instructions help you install AT&T Global Services and VPN Client (Extranet Access) software on your Windows computer for accessing Spat s network via the Internet using VPN (virtual private network). You should receive a CD-ROM containing two installation programs (ATTsetup.exe and VPNclient.exe), as well as a sheet with information about your AT&T Global Services account (one information sheet per user). Contact System Administration if you have any problems or questions about this installation. You will need to be connected to a modem (or DSL line, cable modem, etc.) to complete the configuration portion of VPN Client setup. Installing AT&T Global Services This section tells you how to install the software for AT&T Global Services. This supplies ISP access for VPN for dial-up modem users. Users with DSL or cable modem connections (which supply constant ISP access) do not need this service for a VPN connection. You will need your AT&T Global Services account information sheet for this installation. 1. Insert the CD containing the ATTsetup.exe executable, and view the contents using Explorer (or My Computer); there is no autorun program. 2. Double-click on the file ATTsetup.exe to start the installation. 3. A welcome screen for AT&T Global Network Dialer is displayed. Click Next to continue 4. The Legal Agreement screen is displayed. Click I agree to accept the agreement. 5. A screen indicating the type of installation (location for installing the software) is displayed. Select Typical to install in the default location on the C: drive (if you need to install in a different location, select Custom and follow the on-screen instructions). Click 6. A screen for starting the installation is displayed. Click Start Install. This will extract and then launch the InstallShield wizard. This may take a few moments. 7.
