Registering a Device on the Network

University network ports are secured, and the campus wireless network uses WPA2-Enterprise authentication to protect University resources and data. If you have an approved device that requires a wired Ethernet connection, you must submit a ticket through the IT Service Portal to have the appropriate network access provisioned. Please see Register device on the TAMU-CC Network for instructions on how to submit a request.

Many types of equipment rely on a network connection to operate and may require a wired Ethernet connection rather than Wi-Fi. However, not all hardware is compatible with the University's enterprise network or meets the security requirements necessary to connect to campus systems. To help avoid purchasing equipment that cannot be supported, Information Technology recommends submitting a Hardware Acquisition Request ticket. Our team can help determine whether a device is compatible with the University's network infrastructure and security standards as well as our ADA compliance requirements.
