Globus Connect Personal

Globus Connect Personal is the name of the software used to create Globus Connect Personal endpoints, for sharing files with other users. It is meant to be installed on machines that Stanford classifies as endpoints, machines that are used primarily by one person (such as desktops and laptops).

Globus Connect Personal does not require a dedicated or public IP address. It will work even behind a firewall (or home router), as long as you can make outbound connections to certain ports on the outside Internet.

To begin, read the Install and Activate guide for instructions on how to set up Globus Connect Personal on your desktop or laptop.
