Trigon Network Access

In order to use the RDM infrastructure and many other services offered by the DCCN, you must have access to the Trigon Network. Of course the most obvious way to do this is to use a PC with a hard-wired connection from within the building, such as the PC’s in the Trainee or Instruction Rooms or a DCCN-issued laptop connected to a docking station within the building. However, it is also possible to access the network remotely through VPN.
