Personal Networks

Rules and Regulations

When you register for a University IT Account, there are clauses in the ICT Acceptable Use Policy IT relating to the personal networks, namely:

Users connecting personally-owned IT equipment to the University wireless network are advised that it will be subject to security checks and certain pre-requisites before connection is allowed. These are detailed on the IT Services web site. Such use of University networks is at the owner’s risk. The university does not accept responsibility for any loss or damage occurring to non-University equipment through the use of its network facilities.
Users must not establish or operate wireless access points within University premises. Equipment fitted with wireless capability must be used in “infrastructure mode” via a University wireless access point.

Note: the use of such a network connection is at the owner's risk. The University does not accept responsibility for any loss or damage occurring to non-University equipment through the use of such network facilities.
