Remote Access (VPN)
A virtual private network (VPN) is a secure method of accessing University computing resources when you are logged in from an off鈥揷ampus computer or a laptop you are using to access the听Wireless Network. The VPN creates a secure connection called a tunnel between your computer and the campus network. The tunnel disguises the information you are sending and receiving, so your electronic communications are secure and protected.
Network Your Device
If you need to connect a new printer, server, networked copier or other device to the network, you will need to request an IP Address. IP address is a number that is assigned to a computer by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to be its permanent address on the Internet. Computers and other connected devices use IP addresses to locate and talk to each other on the Internet, much the same way people use phone numbers to locate and talk to one another on the telephone
Host Your Server
A server is a piece of hardware that stores electronic information such as department records, email messages, website documents and images.听Similar in appearance to a computer 鈥榖ox,鈥� a server has a much larger capacity for the storage of files.听One important issue to consider is the location of your server.
