Re: Student Side Ports

[Chuck Keeler <keeler_c () MITCHELL EDU>]

We open them up and let them game on … since we manage the bandwidth that they have, we can throttle anyone from taking 
over the entire stream … to date we haven't had any issues although we do see spikes we do not see it saturated.

Subject: [SECURITY] Student Side Ports

Now that our bandwidth has increased more users are jumping back on our network.  As a result I am getting a lot of 
requests to open ports for online gaming.
What is your policy on opening ports on the student side for gaming or other applications?
