CWU 2021-2022 Residence Hall Reference Guide

REGISTRATION If you are connecting a device to our wired network, or if your device cannot log in to our wireless network with a username or password, you will need to register the device at: hostreg.resnet. cwu.edu. Note that this can only been done while you are on campus. Some devices can only connect to the wireless internet after registration, so keep this in mind when trying to get things set up! CWU-PLAY ResNet also offers CWU-PLAY a wireless solution for devices that lack the ability to connect via our more secure CWU-WILDCATS, this is specifically designed for Smart TVs, Gaming devices and other internet-connected devices. To get started register your MAC Address at https://hostreg.resnet.cwu.edu once registered you will be given a simple password that will get you on the internet just like any home wireless system. CONTACT US For help with any of these processes, or for clarification on any of our policies and procedures, contact us at 509-963-2001 or via email at resnet@cwu.edu . RESNET ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY (AUP) CWU reserves the right to change this policy at will and it is the student’s responsibility to know and understand the current policy. By using ResNet you are agreeing to the following: 1. You will have anti-virus and anti-malware software on your computer that is kept up to date and is configured to scan weekly. If your software is not up to date it may lead to an infection which in turn may result in your network access being disabled. 2. You will keep your computer updated for security fixes from the appropriate software update service (Windows Update on windows computers, Software Update on Apple computers). If your computer is not up to date it may lead to virus infection which in turn may result in your network access being disabled. 3. You will not use ANY peer-to-peer (P2P) or file sharing programs/applications (examples include Limewire, Cabos, Gnutella, eMule, Napster, and WinMX) on the ResNet network. 4. You will not extend the network through the use of routers (wired or wireless), bridges, or other network hardware. 5. You are fully responsible for your computer, including its hardware, software, and any network traffic transmitted by it, regardless if this traffic was authorized by you or not . Please contact ResNet if you have questions about whether or not certain software/hardware might conflict with this AUP. 6. You will not use applications that consume disproportionate bandwidth, attempt denial-of-service attack(s), probe and/ or exploit security holes in other systems, use unauthorized IP addresses, attempt “hacking” or “cracking”, or otherwise degrade or restrict network access for others (either on or off campus). 7. Your network access will be disabled if CWU receives complaints about or detects inappropriate behavior. You may also be subject to computer account suspension, university disciplinary action, and/or legal consequences. 8. You may use the Resnet network for personal uses such as: Web browsing, transferring files, playing games, chatting, “internet phone”, etc. as long as access to these services is done in a legal manner . 9. You may set up private servers for personal uses such as: game serving, local file sharing, or other applications as long as these file servers do not violate CWU policies , which includes but are not limited to software and music copyright protection. These

servers are only to be used by CWU students and may not be made available to non-residents . 10. You will not use network connections in CWU housing to provide any service that is visible off campus (i.e., available on the global Internet). This applies to services such as, but not limited to, HTTP (Web), telnet, FTP, IRC, “Napster” type music sharing, game servers, and email. 11. You will not impersonate others or attempt to gain access to accounts or computers that you do not have permission to use, or spoof NIC MAC or IP addresses on any computer to gain access to the network. 12. You will not run a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server that listens on a network interface that is directly connected to ResNet. 13. You will not configure your computer to provide Internet or CWU network/ system access to anyone who is not a CWU faculty or staff member or student. 14. You will not configure your computer as a gateway into the CWU network (as a dial up server or any other means). AUP VIOLATION PENALTIES Penalties for AUP Violations are: 1st Offense: User’s internet/network access will be disabled for one week. 2nd Offense: User’s internet/network access will be disabled for two weeks. 3rd Offense: User’s internet/network access will be disabled until the student schedules a judicial review with the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities for potential disciplinary actions. ______________________________________________________ ROOMMATES Residence hall staff will provide support and assistance to roommates in resolving conflicts. (Refer to Roommate Agreement on page 5.) Each roommate has a responsibility to report any violations occurring in the residence hall room. In addition, violation of roommate agreements that are established with the hall staff could lead to additional sanctions including a possible move from the room. Housing and Residence Life reserves the right to make administrative moves at any time. Refer to Changing Rooms There are times when a student has a double-occupancy contract, but may live alone in a double room. It is a requirement for students to be prepared to have a student move into that space at any time. This means the bed is available, the closets are empty and clean, and the room is generally available for occupancy at any time. Additionally, you may not refuse a potential roommate, explicitly or implicitly. If the space is not available upon entry for a student, you will be required to make that space available for a student to be assigned into that space and you may be assessed a room fee for the period the space was unavailable or until a new roommate is assigned whichever is greater and be referred to student conduct. This does NOT grant you a single room. SANITATION AND CLEANLINESS and/or Halls on page 16. ROOMMATE SPACE Any action or inaction that compromises the cleanliness of the hall environment or that is considered unsafe or unhealthy is prohibited. Upon notification, students shall comply with all Housing and Residence Life requests pertaining to correction of health and safety violations in and around their assigned room or in community spaces within the hall. • Health Code: All residents shall comply with city, county, and state codes regarding health and safety.
