We run two separate networks for college use and personal use. All computers on the primary internal network are maintained by our central IT department. We allow wireless for PEAP authenticated devices which are also managed by IT. The other network we allow students and employees to connect personal computers to. There is a firewall protecting them from the Internet (and vice-versa) and a required login for accountability. This entire network is logically located outside of our main firewalls. If you would like more detail, just let me know and I will try to explain it better. -- Nathaniel Hall, GSEC GCFW GCIA GCIH GCFA Network Security System Administrator OTC Computer Networking (417) 447-7535 ________________________________ From: Drake, Craig [mailto:c-drake () NEIU EDU] Sent: Friday, November 02, 2007 1:47 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] Policies for personally-owned computers connecting to staff network? I am curious to know what kinds of policies other universities have for allowing personal (non-university owned) computers and devices to their staff networks? We have requests periodically by staff and faculty members to allow their personally owned laptops access to our staff network and resources. Without a good Network Access Control system in place how are others handling these requests and the potential security threats associated.
