Who do you allow on your VPN (fac, staff, students, IT)?

Everyone with an account can access our VPN.

How many profiles do you have (one for each above, more granular)?

Four, not restricted to user category, as follows:

TunnelAll - tunnels all traffic through our VPN
TunnelAll_Duo - same as above with Duo required to connect
SplitTunnel - tunnels campus traffic through our VPN
SplitTunnel_Duo - same as above with Duo required to connect

Do you require two-factor authentication?

Only on the Duo profiles.

Do you require a managed workstation to access the VPN?

No.  This would be infeasible, given that we allow everyone to use the
VPN and that most of them are doing so from personally-owned devices.

We are currently rolling out 2FA to campus and we are encouraging our
campus IT Pros to restrict things to the Duo profile IP ranges, but
since many of those services are accessible from off-campus without
VPN use, this is a hard sell.
