SUNYNet - Private Networking

Service Overview:

  • Campus and SUNYNet staff discuss business needs and cooperatively develop an implementation plan to provide secure communications between SUNY Campuses and offices.
  • SUNYNet provides a Cisco ASA 5500 series device1 provisioned and supported by SUNYNet that will act as a service endpoint, at no cost to the campus IT department.
  • Monitoring of the operational health and utilization of the device is provided with the option of alerting the campus when we are unable to reach their network.
  • A wide array of options to customize the service and create a best fit for SUNYNet and the campus IT department.

Benefits:

  • Secure communication for unsecure traffic -- ideal for Degreeworks, federation and other services that require server-to-server communication over non-SSL ports.
  • Administration, management and support for the SUNYNet-provisioned ASA is all performed by the SUNYNet NOC and, optionally, may be co-managed by campus IT staff
