Computing Setup in SLAC Conference Rooms |
14 August 2001
Sierra Room
SLAC Auditorium and Lobby
BABAR 280
Overhead
Projector:
The
Proxima overhead projector will take input from either the Orange Room workstation or a laptop.
Just toggle the Belkin box switch to go from one input to the other.
To
project talks stored on a floppy disk file, use the workstation in the Orange Room.
To project talks directly from a laptop, hook up to the Belkin switch box.
Network:
Those
who come with laptops and need network, just plug into the hub under the table
(white network cables hanging from the hub).
These are configured for anonymous DHCP on the 'Visitor Network'.
Just plug in, and if the laptop is configured for DHCP it will get a
network address.
Instructions for configuring DHCP for different operating systems (NT, Windows 9x, UNIX) are at the bottom of this page
There is an additional 'Visitor Network' tap on the wall below the white screen (marked as such).
The
other network taps are for regular SLAC Network, and need registration to get a
network address assignment (DHCP or fixed).
Windows NT Workstation in the Orange Room
This is a regular SLAC Windows NT workstation, and needs SLAC NT account for login. It has access to regular printers on the SLAC network.
Sharing Files
Easiest
method is once laptops are networked, e-mail the file as an attachment.
Printing
Currently, there is no setup for laptops on the 'Visitor Network' to print. Files can be printed on the Windows NT Workstation in the Orange Room, or e-mailed to someone at SLAC with printer connection. The reason is that the printers hooked up to the Windows NT network at SLAC do not accept such anonymous connections.
Wireless networking is set up in SLAC Auditorium, and in the SLAC Auditorium Lobby. Both the wireless network and the regular network taps in these rooms are on the Visitor Network.
Overhead
Projector:
There
is a Proxima overhead projector in Conference Room A only. This
will take input from either the conference room NT workstation or a laptop.
Network:
There are 'Visitor Network' taps on the wall beneath the white boards of both Conference Room A and B (marked as such).
Those
who need to network their laptops can plug into these 2 network taps (or a hub
may be set up).
These are configured for anonymous DHCP on the 'Visitor Network'.
Just plug in, and if the laptop is configured for DHCP it will get a
network address.
