Introduction

The format of the workshop allows for most of the project development to be exercised in a semi-isolated environment. While group sessions need interaction through internet with the team members, a live share link can be used to link Visual Studio Code sessions together, without exposing ports or other information to the rest of the people. For some of the integration tasks, the idea is for each group to work with their component running on a local container in their machines and to interact with the other group's software.

Configuration

The VPN has been set up using Cisco's technology, and requires AnyConnect or OpenConnect to work (There may be other alternatives, but have not been tried out). Using these technologies, you require the following information:

  • Server: vpn.sco.alma.cl
  • Users: acswsNN (01-16)
  • Group: ACS-WORKSHOP2020
  • Password: The passwords will be distributed directly to the groups through the Slack channels

The client will be installed in the Virtual Machines, but if you need to download it for any reason, you can log in with the same user in https://vpn.sco.alma.cl/

Known Issues

For some clients, there's a report of an untrusted certificate in the VPN server. For the purposes of the workshop, the recommendation is to ignore such claim, considering that the certificate information should come from:

Identity: vpn.sco.alma.cl
Verified by: Go Daddy Secure Certificate Authority - G2
