Resources provided by the Computing Support Group
General ResourcesGeneral resources provided by the CSG to support computing within CSE
include:
- a
trusted subnet for debian-linux and Windows 2000 desktop computers installed and
maintained by CSG, connected by ethernet to the CSE network. Most of the student laboratories are
on this subnet.
- an
untrusted subnet for computers installed and maintained by users, connected by ethernet to
the CSE network. Laptops are the most common type of computer connected to this subnet, but it also
includes desktops, robots, printers and other devices.
- a
wireless subnet for use within the K17 building
- a
modem pool for dial-up access to the CSE network, provided to staff, postgraduate and
undergraduate research student.
- at least 2 laser printers per floor in the K17 building or lab area
- 2 colour laser printers, on levels 1 and 4 of the K17 building, for staff and
postgraduateresearch student use.
- several general access compute servers, plus a number of restricted access servers for specific
research groups.
Further information on CSE's laboratories and servers can be found on the

Obtaining your CSE accountNew staff and academic visitors will require their CSE contact
to request an account for them via the
New Staff/Visitor/PhD Notification Form.
Students will receive their account automatically after enrolment and should not submit
requests for account creation. This generally includes postgraduate research students, however, if
the student begins their research long before or after enrolment their supervisor can use the
New Staff/Visitor/PhD Notification Form to request an account
be created for them.
NOTE: CSG has a policy on
acceptable usernames which you are
requested to read and abide by before submitting the above form.
Information and HelpMany of CSG's online information and help resources are listed on the

The
CSG Gazette also contains a lot of useful
information about CSG's policies, resources and activities.
