The following methods of connecting to one of the dialog systems of the RWTH Compute Cluster are available:

• SSH
• Remote desktop sessions

The RWTH Compute Cluster is directly accessible only from the RWTH network and from other universities in North Rhine-Westphalia.
In the latter case your computer additionally needs a valid DNS entry in order to get access.
In all other cases you have to first establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection in order to get an RWTH network address.
