IIT J Gateway Extension

Watching Netflix and the internet session expired? Say no more. The intranet of IIT Jodhpur uses Forticlient for user authentication and to authorize us with the internet connection. However, Forticlient forces a gateway for users to login to and avail of the services. Users are provided with short sessions which are frequently expired; this creates a burden on the user to keep re-logging inside the gateway. We have made this extension to automate the login process and tackle this problem. The chrome extension frequently checks for the internet connection, and when lost, it redirects to the FortiClient gateway and login on your behalf.
