Network

What is the Binghamton NetWork Manager (campus manager)?
Campus Manager is a system by which connections to the campus network are managed. It is used to verify that a system has all of its critical OS patches and valid antivirus software that is up to date.

The system also has the ability to "scan" the network to determine if a computer is infected, and it will quarantine the computer if necessary.

The Client Validation System pages has instructions for registering your machine in Campus Manager.

How often will I need to register?
Once at the beginning of each semester. If a major security vulnerability is discovered or there is an outbreak of a virus and/or worm you may be required to check your PC in again.

What do I do if my computer has been quarantined?
You should receive a web page in your browser instructing you on what to do. If you have any questions, please contact the Help Desk.

What Antivirus Software is Supported?
The following antivirus software is supported: McAfee, Symantec (Norton), Microsoft Security Essentials, F-Secure, F-Protect, eTrust, Panda, AVG Free Edition, Sophos, Trend, NOD32, Kaspersky, BitDefender, Bullguard, Antivir (Avast!), Command
