ITS will perform maintenance on the WebHelpDesk ticketing system the morning of Friday, September 6th. Service will be disrupted for up to 3 hours, and should be restored by 12pm.
August 21st 2024
Beginning on August 22nd the authentication method for the AC-Devices wireless network will change. It will no longer utilize a single, global password and instead use private pre-shared keys unique to each user. We will auto-generate these keys and email them to all students (example below, please note the sender “Extreme Networks”). Employee needs should be submitted to ITS via ticket for evaluation. This change enhances overall security and accountability on the network. Please note that this will disconnect any currently connected devices on this network.
