Access UW administrative systems

You should be able to access many UW administrative systems from your laptop or home computer.

Prepare in advance

  • If you need to access systems that require two-factor authentication (2FA), be sure to enroll the device you’ll use in the UW’s 2FA to verify it’s you when you sign in (i.e. WorkDay).
    • NOTE: Please use Push Notifications where possible.
  • If you have a UW Bothell managed workstation computer available at work, you can use Remote Desktop access with an approved, secure VPN to connect to your work computer, and then you can access UW administrative systems in the usual way.
  • Email UW Bothell IT support staff for information about remotely connecting to the specific systems your department uses.

When working remotely

  • Activate a Husky OnNet software, if necessary, to remotely access the UW network.
  • Authenticate with the system you need to access, with two-factor authentication if necessary.
  • Use a terminal emulator to access systems that use a command line interface. FileZilla and WinSCP are recommended for Homer, Red, and other Unix systems. Access Keynes Administrative Applications with SecureCRT.
