== Terminal Room ==

The Terminal Room is located Hall Maillot (Near Registration) on the 2nd
Level and is open 24 hours a day beginning Sunday, March 25th. A help desk
is being provided, hours are listed below.  The room itself consists of
approximately 80 seats providing some wired access and 110v North American
power ports. There is also a duplex color printer available. Please note
that this terminal room has, in fact, no terminals, PCs or other
user-accessible machines. It is simply a place to get power, wired Internet
access, help desk support, or print documents.

When using the Ethernet connections in the Terminal Room, IPv4 addressing
is provided via DHCP. Please use Dynamic Auto-configuration for IPv6. To
cut down on the mess, ethernet cables have not been installed to every seat
in the Terminal Room. If you need a cable, please ask at the Help Desk.

=== Help Desk ===
A help desk is being provided and will be manned the following hours:

|| Sunday || 16:00 to 19:00 ||
|| Monday ||  8:00 to 20:00 ||
|| Tuesday ||  8:00 to 20:00 ||
|| Wednesday ||  8:00 to 20:00 ||

== NOC and Ticketing ==

There are several ways to communicate with the NOC staff.
1. Submit a new trouble ticket via the [
http://noc.meeting.ietf.org/newticket "trac web"] interface. Filling in the
following fields: "My MAC Address", "My Current Location", and "My OS" may
expedite ticket processing. If you have an existing account on
http://tools.ietf.org you can use your established credentials (email
address and tools password) to [http://noc.meeting.ietf.org/login "log in"].
2. Send an email to '''`tickets at meeting.ietf.org`''' with as much detail
regarding your issue and configuration as possible.
3. If you're on site and need direct network assistance (i.e - you have no
network) please go to the helpdesk, which is located in the Terminal Room
on the second level near registration.
4. Use the Jabber room at noc @ jabber.ietf.org to report issues or
communicate with the NOC.

You can also use trac to review outstanding tickets before reporting an
issue or to update outstanding tickets.

== Network Basics ==

=== External Connectivity ===

The IETF 83 network connects to the Internet via two 1Gb/s links, provided
by Orange. The entire event is addressed out of the 130.129.0.0/16 block
for IPv4 and 2001:df8::/32 for IPv6. IPv6 is native and is supported. We
are supplying bandwidth for the meeting spaces at the Conference Center and
in-room wireless connections at the Hotel Concorde - La Fayette.

== Meeting Room Wireless ==

An 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless network is being provided liberally throughout
the venue.  802.11n is only available on the 5Ghz frequencies.

To use the meeting room wireless network, associate with the beaconed SSID
of "ietf" for 802.11a/b/g/n and "ietf-a" for 802.11a/n.  IPv4 addressing is
provided via DHCP.  IPv6 clients should use Dynamic Auto-configuration, and
may use DHCPv6 to retrieve name server information.

For those interested in more link-layer security, WPA SSIDs with 802.1X is
available.  The SSIDs are "ietf.1x" and "ietf-a.1x". Do not use WPA-PSK as
that will not work.  Also, using TLS as an eap method is not advisable,
please prefer TTLS.

To use 802.1X:
1. Associate to SSID: ietf.1x OR ietf-a.1x
2. Use PEAP/MSCHAPv2
3. Do Not Verify Server Cert and we won't verify yours :)
4. Username (case sensitive): ietf
5. Password (case sensitive): ietf

If you have an eduroam account, we support authenticating via eduroam.
Simply select the "eduroam" SSID.  Use your eduroam credentials.

The proper operation of the wireless network requires the assistance of all
users.  One of the most significant issues with wireless performance in
past IETF meetings has been wireless clients automatically, or accidentally
initiating "ad-hoc" networks that act as the official IETF wireless
network, causing other users to associate with false IETF wireless
networks.  Therefore, please disable your client's ability to create an
ad-hoc network and as well as the ability to automatically join an ad-hoc
network.

=== Experimental Networks ===

There are two experimental SSIDs.  "ietf-v6ONLY" is there to demonstrate
the current state of an IPv6 only Internet.  Do not expect any services to
be available via IPv4 on this SSID.  There is also an SSID called
"ietf-nat64" which is a demonstration of nat64 services. This network has a
specific DNS server for use with the demonstration located at node
2001:df8:0:7::1.

|| SSID || Access Credentials || Purpose ||
|| ietf-v6ONLY || None || A IPv6-only network for investigating IPv6 in the
absence of IPv4 ||
|| ietf-nat64 || None || A demonstration of NAT64 ||
|| eduroam || Your eduroam credentials || An instance of the eduroam
project. See [http://www.eduroam.org eduroam website] ||

== Guest Room Access ==

The IETF Network is being extended to the guest rooms in the Concorde Hotel
- La Fayette. Guest room network access is available via wireless only.
Both IPv4 and IPv6 are deployed.

== Printing ==

There is a printer in the Terminal Room and is available to all IETF users.
The printer is a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, is Postscript capable and has
the duplex option installed. The printer is accessible via LPD, Bonjour,
standard TCP/IP on port 9100.  The hostname for it is
terminalroom-printer.meeting.ietf.org.

|| Name || Model || Capabilities || IPv4 Address|| IPv6 Address|| Notes ||
Drivers||
||terminalroom-printer.meeting.ietf.org || HP 9600 || Color Laser
w/Duplexer || 130.129.48.16 || 2001:df8:0:48:7aac:c0ff:fe90:b5c6 || Bonjour
