To keep our campus wireless system secure and virus free, we will begin deploying a new access control system, known as Bradford Campus Manager, on Monday, August 3rd. The existing control system, Cisco Clean Access, no longer delivers the comprehensive security, performance, or coverage required for safe computing.
All college and personally owned laptops that connect to the Davidson wireless network will need to download and install the new Bradford Campus Manager software before gaining wireless access. This change does not affect office computers. The Bradford software will only need to be downloaded and installed one time per device. To install the Bradford Campus Manager and register your computer on the network, you will need to connect to the wireless network, open your browser, and follow the prompts on the screen. The requirements for gaining access to the wireless network will remain the same as they were with Cisco Clean Access. These requirements include having up-to-date Macintosh and Windows patches and an up-to-date version of Sophos Anti-Virus.
As always, we are here to help. If you need assistance or have any questions, please call or email the Help Desk (helpdesk@davidson.edu or x-2900).
