Lycoming College Campus Manager

In an effort to enhance student access to the Lycoming College network and to protect the academic mission of the college, ITS has deployed a network appliance to protect the campus data network called Campus Manager. Campus Manager includes tools to configure, monitor and manage our network. If a student computer does not meet the required components of the Campus Manager check, the student computer will not be able to connect to Resnet or the internet.
