Hello all
This is just a reminder that the building network will change, and what this means for you.
For those who have Windows Desktops or Laptops that connect through Wired Ethernet, and login with your UMNet ID:
If/When you sign in with your UMnet ID and password, you should automatically connect to the network without having to do any extra steps. Your device will connect and you won't see any changes.
For those who have Windows Desktops or Laptops that connect through Wired Ethernet, and login with a local account:
You should see a dialog box pop up asking you to authenticate with your Umnet ID and password. If you do not see a dialog box, navigate through START-SETTINGS-NETWORK AND INTERNET-ETHERNET, you should see your connection information with SIGN IN at the top. Choose this and sign in with your UMnet ID. If your base UMnet id doesn't work, login with ad\UMnetid and your password instead.
For those who have Apple devices (iMacs, Macbook Pro, etc) who connect through Wired Ethernet, regardless of how you log in.
You should get a dialog box, similar to when you connect to Wireless, asking you to log in, so use your UMnet ID and password, and you should be able to connect.
For those who have Linux based devices, please navigate to this page to set up 802.1x if you need assistance. I don't know how accurate these are, but it should give you a starting point if you're not sure:

For those of you who didn't receive my previous email regarding the changes in printing and how to address this, I will be around all next week (except Tuesday) and will be coming around to those affected to set things again for you. Please send me an email if/when this happens, or if you need any other assistance with IP addresses and connecting help, and I will do my best to get to you as quickly as I can.

“The University of Manitoba campuses and research spaces are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene and Inuit, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.
UM recognizes that the Treaties signed on these lands are a lifelong, enduring relationship, and we are dedicated to upholding their spirit and intent. We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and the present. With this understanding, we commit to supporting Indigenous excellence through active Reconciliation, meaningful change, and the creation of an environment where everyone can thrive. Our collaboration with Indigenous communities is grounded in respect and reciprocity and this guides how we move forward as an institution.”
