Physics Network Integration

DESCRIPTION

The Oxford Physics Network offers extensive IT services, including 1Gbps backbone connectivity, access to various resources, and robust security measures. With over 16 network concentration points and 2290 available switch ports, users can utilize the Physics wireless network featuring 802.11g and 802.11n access points. Important security protocols such as VPN, MAC address registration, and antivirus updates are emphasized. Users can access email and other services securely from untrusted networks through specific protocols. For further information, visit the provided links or contact the network team.

  2. Physics network team • Chris Hunter : Network Manager • David Newton : Network Support Technician • Room DWB 663 • Phone 73501 • Email network@physics.ox.ac.uk

  3. Network Sockets & Concentration Points • 16 network concentration points (NCP’s) in the Denys Wilkinson Building alone. • Available Switch ports 2290 Approx. 59.2% active • Level 2 NCP hub of the Physics network with 1Gb fibre connections going to each of the Physics buildings.

  4. Physics Firewall Firewall Juniper Netscreen ISG 1000

  5. Physics Wireless Network • Currently 19 x 802.11g 56Mbps wireless access points in the DWB plus a couple of 802.11n 300Mbps • Clients connected to the Physics_M wireless network are part of the 163.1.19.x subnet, currently WEP encryption only. • 802.1x authentication should be coming soon using Physics network credentials. • Register for wireless network access with Physics Network credentials at http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/it/account.

  6. OUCS wireless network • OWL-VISITOR and OWL-VPN also available, via the OWL ssid. • Eduroam now also available, connect using your Remote Access Account, different from your SSO or Nexus account http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/network/wireless/services/eduroam/ • Details about both OWL & Eduroam at http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/network/wireless

  7. Access to Physics Services from the un-trusted subnet or remotely • Virtual Private Network (VPN) • vpn.physics.ox.ac.uk works with Microsoft, Linux and OSX clients, uses Physics authentication domain help at http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/it/network/vpn/ • Oxford University Computing Service (OUCS) have VPN service, does need specific client installed details at http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/network/vpn/

  8. Network Security • Connecting unmanaged systems to the Physics Network • MAC address registration is needed before gaining any network connection for laptops please register at http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/it/account/ • 172.17.x.x un-trusted subnet • Is your laptop up to date? • Anti Virus / spyware • Fully patched OS • Connecting from outside of Physics • SMB blocked, no connection to windows files • MAPI access to Exchange Server blocked • SMTP blocked

  9. Network Security • Exchange Server protocols not blocked • IMAP • Authenticated SMTP is available using mail.physics.ox.ac.uk, PHYSICS authentication domain credentials are needed to use the service • Other protocols • web access • RPC over HTTPS

  10. Network Security • Sophos Anti Virus Software • Updates, out of date AV is no use • Download Sophos for personal laptops running:- • Sophos 7.6.12 for XP, Vista and Windows7 at http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/sophos/ • Linux at http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/viruses/linux/ • Sophos v7.0.5 for MAC OSX 10.4/10.5/10.6 at http://www.physics.ox.ac.uk/sophos/ • Hoping to setup Network Access Control (NAC) onto our network

  11. Network Backbone Connection • Physics connection presently 1Gbps • Campus connection to Super Janet currently at 2 x 10Gbps.
