Network Services

 

The University of Montevallo provides network access to faculty, staff, and students via traditional wired Ethernet connections as well as some wireless LAN connections.  Wireless connectivity can now be found in numerous buildings on campus.  Network connectivity is provided to each of the academic and administrative buildings as well as the residence halls, on campus via fiber-optic cabling or, in the case of Lyman House and the UM baseball field, via wireless bridge technology.  All connections are centrally linked with the use of a Cisco Catalyst 4006 and Hewlett Packard 5304 switches located in Technology Services in Morgan Hall.

Internet services

Currently, internet services for the university are provided by the use of a single 50 Mbps connection from the Alabama Super Computer Authority.  This connection is made via a Metro Ethernet fiber connection through AT&T.
