Access to Wireless Networks at San Francisco General Hospital (SFGH)

Introduction

The School of Medicine, working in conjunction with the Department of Public Health (DPH), provides wireless services to UCSF faculty, staff, and affiliated parties of the University at SFGH. Listed below are the various types of wireless networks that are currently offered. By accessing these networks, users are agreeing to comply with the UCSF Minimum Security Standards for Electronic Information Resources.

• UCSFguest - The UCSFguest wireless network is available to UCSF affiliated visitors of the SFGH campus who need access to the web. No client configuration is required. This network will provide limited access to UCSF campus and Internet resources. UCSF faculty, staff and students should utilize the protected UCSFwpa network for full access to campus resources. More information about the UCSFguest wireless network from ITS.
• UCSFwpa - This wireless network provides encrypted access to all UCSF network resources and the Internet. A MyAccess or UCSF Active Directory account is required to authenticate to this wireless network. More information about the UCSFwpa wireless network from ITS.
• UCSF-Clinical - This wireless network provides encrypted access to DPH clinical resources, UCSF network resources, and the Internet at SFGH. This network is restricted to clinicians with a MyAccess or UCSF Active Directory account that require access to resources on the DPH network. All devices that connect must meet the UCSF minimum security requirements and be registered with Computing and Network Services. For general web browsing or to access the UCSF network, use the wireless networks UCSFguest or UCSFwpa (no registration required).
  
  Use the following steps to register your device for the wireless network UCSF-Clinical:
  
  1 - Contact the UCSF Service Desk at (415) 206-5126.
  2 - Ask to have a ticket opened to connect your device to the wireless network UCSF-Clinical at San Francisco General Hospital.
  3 - Wait to be contacted by your Computer Support Coordinator (CSC) to have your device verified and registered on the UCSF-Clinical wireless network.
  
  Registration for this network is done on a per-device basis, not a per-user basis. If you have multiple devices that must connect to UCSF-Clinical (e.g., an iPhone and an iPad), please let the Service Desk know. If you replace your device or get a new device, it must be registered before it can connect to UCSF-Clinical.
