UMBC Office of Information Technology Search OIT Site ResNet Guidelines for Acceptable Use UCS may at any time choose to monitor traffic throughout the Residential Network for security reasons.
All users are responsible for any traffic originating from a computer they are logged into.
If you wish to use a different operating system, you must make sure it can support DHCP to automatically obtain its IP address. Students may run servers on their computers but UMBC may block all off-campus access to ResNet. Illegal MP3, ftp or other illegal servers cannot be run from ResNet and a student caught running any such service is subject to judicial review by the university and may be subject to prosecution for copyright violations. The UMBC Policy on Responsible Computing applies to all ResNet connections and forms the basis for all disciplinary actions taken by the university.
