-<box 40% red right right-clear|Guests>If you are a short-term visitor to Tate Lab, please see our [[guests]] page. +
-</box> +
-To connect any device to the Physics network, you must abide by our [[:computing:policies:network_connection|network security policy]].+
  
-To register a computer for use on the Physics network, follow these steps:+The wired network jacks in the Physics-occupied areas of Physics & Nanotechnology and Tate Hall are operated by the University.
  
-  - First, find the network hardware address of your computer. You can find this using [[http://www.oit.umn.edu/network/using/setup/index.html|these instructions from OIT]]. +To connect any device to the Physics network, you must first register it and agree to abide by University security policies.
-  - Register your computer for the Physics network using our online [[http://www.physics.umn.edu/resources/myphys/network/|Network Registration Tool]]. +
-  - Finally, configure your computer to obtain its address using DHCP. For help on how to do this, you can refer to the [[http://www.oit.umn.edu/network/using/setup/index.html|OIT internet connection guide]]. +
  
-===== Changing your network registrations ===== +Only full members of CSEIT can register devices on the network. In general, only University-owned (not personal) devices are allowed on the wired network.
-<box 40% red right|Important>All systems in the School of Physics and Astronomy should use DHCP to configure their network address. You should never enter address information into your computer manually. +
-</box> +
-You can use the network tools to list your currently registered network devices, change or remove them, or add additional ones. +
-  * [[http://www.physics.umn.edu/resources/myphys/network/myhosts.html|My network devices]]+
  
 +To register a computer for use on the Physics network, follow these steps:
  
- +  - Find the network hardware (MAC) address of your computer. [[https://kb.netgear.com/1005/How-do-I-find-my-device-s-MAC-address| How do I find my MAC address?]]. 
-===== Fixed Network Addresses ===== +  - Contact csehelp@umn.edu with: 
- +   *Is administration of the device self-managed or managed by CSE-IT 
-If you need a fixed address, you should still register it using the online tool. You might need a static address for a server or other devices such as network printers. +   *MAC address 
- +   *Building and Room 
-In the registration tool, check the box to request a static address. We will register the hostname and assign an IP address for you. You should still configure your computer to use DHCP; our network will provide the assigned fixed address. +   *Jack Number 
- +   *Preferred Host Name 
-If you have special networking needs, [[:computing:contact|Contact Us]].+
