Re: Consensus About Open Guest Access

["Routen, Nathan" <NRouten () MAIL TWU EDU>]

Jim,
You could consider what compliance imperatives if any may apply to you, why do they not want authentication, and what 
is the potential impact or overall achievable access through that network segment. You may want to provide open guest 
access as a service, but there could be other factors that affect the possibility.

Subject: [SECURITY] Consensus About Open Guest Access

I'm looking for some policies/opinions on how some other universities treat guest access to their networks.  We are in 
the process of reconfiguring the network in our school of nursing and the staff there is requesting open guest access 
w/o authentication.

Thanks,


Jim
