Internal Network Details

This page gives detailed descriptions of our internal network and systems. It will change frequently as we change the network. (Hopefully it will be up-to-date).

The LHC Internal Network consists of an ethernet and wifi network, connected to the internet via a Verizon ADSL link (3Mbps download by 768Kbps upload). The DSL link comes into the basement, where a Westel 6100 DSL router with a 4-port ethernet switch is located. A single port on that switch is connected to an 8-port Linksys switch in the main office, which in turn is connected to a 5-port D-link wifi router on the second floor. The Wifi router is running WPA encryption. It has the SSID "LHC".
