In order to provide service for these new and upgraded Macs, UIT is upgrading the VPN client for Mac users. Even though Big Sur is not yet supported by IT Support Center, users have already upgraded to it or have purchased a new Mac that has Big Sur on it and those folks are currently having issues using VPN.
