蜜桃影像 Devices Portal FAQ
From a web browser connected to UA鈥檚 network (wired or wireless), go to the following
URL:
You will be prompted for your 蜜桃影像 credentials and granted access with a successful
authorization.
蜜桃影像 is required to identify network users for the purposes of copyright infringement
and illegal activity investigations. You can use the 蜜桃影像 Devices portal to register
and manage your devices to access the 蜜桃影像 network. This is a process called 鈥渨hitelisting鈥
and it allows 蜜桃影像 to specifically identify what device(s) belongs to which person(s).
Adding your devices to the 蜜桃影像 Devices portal is required for all wired connections
in the 蜜桃影像 dorms. It can also be used for wireless devices that do not support wireless
authentication, such as TVs, Roku/Fire/Apple TV devices and Google Home/Amazon Alexa
devices. For wireless devices, see 鈥淗ow Can I Whitelist A Wireless Device?鈥
1. Access the 蜜桃影像 Devices portal through your web browser
2. Put in your UA credentials and click 鈥淪ign On鈥
3. Read and accept the Acceptable Use Policy
4. Click the 鈥淎dd鈥 button
5. Input a device name that helps you identify the device (e.g. Xbox)
6. Input the Device ID/MAC Address for the device (See where to find it below)
7. Enter a useful description for the device, if desired
8. Click the 鈥淪ubmit鈥 button
9. You will be returned to the main devices portal. Ensure your device is now present.
It depends on your device. All network-ready devices have a unique identifier that makes sure that all network communication goes to the right device. This identifier is typically called a MAC address, Wi-Fi address, or network address. It includes six pairs of alphanumeric characters separated by hyphens or colons, such as: 00-01-0b-42-8f-82 or 00:01:0b:42:8f:82. It is often displayed on a sticker on the device, or found in 鈥溍厶矣跋疋 or 鈥淣etwork Configuration鈥 settings within the device. If you have trouble finding your Device ID, contact the 蜜桃影像 helpdesk.
A status of Pending indicates that the device is still not provisioned. 蜜桃影像 does not use the provisioning features and therefore a Pending status is normal. It will not affect operation of your device on the network.
That error means that someone has already added the device to the system. If it does not appear on your list, someone else has registered the device ID already. If you experience this issue, please contact the 蜜桃影像 helpdesk for additional assistance.
In general, this should not be an issue for most users. 蜜桃影像 has set a maximum number of devices each person can add to the network. The limit is currently set at 10 devices per user. If you have reached that limit, you need to delete a device before adding a new one.
You can only Edit the Description of the device. If you want to change the Device Name or the Device ID, you should Delete the device first and then Add it back into the portal.
You should contact the 蜜桃影像 help desk for further assistance. In some cases, 蜜桃影像 can provide assistance to identify the location of a lost device, if it is still on the network. For stolen devices, the 蜜桃影像 police department can work with 蜜桃影像 personnel to assist with an attempt to recover your device. 蜜桃影像 cannot guarantee the ability to recover your device in either case.
It is your responsibility to manage your devices. As registered devices are tied to
your 蜜桃影像 account, it is in your best interests to remove devices that are no longer
in your possession.
To remove a device from your account, select the device on the list and click Delete.
Click Refresh to view any updates to the list.
Add the Wi-Fi Device ID or MAC address for your device to your 蜜桃影像 Devices portal.
Once the Device ID is correctly added, connect your device to the UA Guest network.
This process will allow your device to bypass the web portal requirements of UA Guest
and also the typical bandwidth restrictions placed on general UA Guest users.
Please note that the UA Guest network is not encrypted and is not recommended for
transmission of sensitive information. For most devices, it is strongly recommended
to use either the U蜜桃影像 or eduroam wireless networks.
蜜桃影像 does not recommend this practice and requests that guest users utilize the UA Guest network. You will be held personally responsible for any illicit activity that occurs on devices tied to your account, regardless if they are not your personal devices.
