ResNet – Residential Networking
Developing and Implementing an Automated ResNet Program
A case study presented by Jim Riggle, Network Administrator at Franklin College
This presentation will take you through Franklin College’s process of automating the connection of student dorm rooms. We will show our humble beginnings with only a handful of students to our present state of over 500 students connected. We will demonstrate the different phases of development from manual installation to our new automated system which registers, enables billing for services, identifies and activates student ports without intervention.
Let us take you through our experiences, both failures and successes while creating this program.
