Biola-NetID Network
-
Biola members with a Biola NetID and password can connect to the secure Biola-NetID network.
-
When connecting to the Biola-NetID network, you may be asked by your device if it can trust a DigiCert CA certificate from a server named "network-access.biola.edu" (Biola's network authentication server). When you allow this certificate, it allows your device to communicate with our network properly.
-
The Biola-NetID network encrypts all network traffic, securing your activity from other devices that may be eavesdropping.
Biola-Guest Network
The Biola-Guest network provides access to guests similar to other open wireless networks, but with limited access to campus resources. Due to Biola-Guest functioning as an open network, it lacks the high level of security and protection the Biola-NetID network provides.
Biola-Guest has these additional limitations:
- Bandwidth limit of 40 Mbps
- Restricted access (internet and public Biola sites only)
- Network traffic is not encrypted
- Password will be valid for five days
