Wireless Networking
Brief Description of Project:
Installation of wireless networking in campus inner ring.
Impact on Campus:
This will enable mobile users to access wireless networking (802.11b and future
standards) both indoors and outdoors within the inner ring. This specifically
includes most outdoor green spaces as well as the amphitheater, indoor common
areas and lecture halls/multimedia classrooms. This will be enhanced with access
to a VPN for security/encryption and when available authentication via the new
campus directory services.
