310.6Info on Digital sites anywhere?CVG::CAMPANELLACarpe DiemTue Mar 11 1997 21:3510
    Hmmm... I guess there is no central repository for this information?
    
    I have the same problem as the person in the previous note... I work in
    ZKO, PKO, MRO, and NIO.  Who do I call to get all this info, and do I
    have to change params for each site?
    
    Any thoughts of creating a note here or a web page or something for
    folks to post info about each site?

310.7Contact the facility network support group.IROCZ::SCHWARTZWed Mar 12 1997 17:3322
    Michael,
    
    As I mentioned in an earlier reply, the only way to make sure you are
    supported, is by contacting the network support people for the
    facility.  For the greater Maynard area call DTN 223-2420.  More sites
    are coming on all the time, and many sites that are not completely
    covered by Access Points do have some coverage, because end groups are
    buying their own Access Point and placing them in the areas they need
    coverage.
    
    Most of the sites are in fact using the same Domain ID and Beacon Key,
    so if you are running with a DHCP IP address, you just need to turn on
    your PC in a DIGITAL location and you are imediately connected to the
    network.
    
    Good luck,
    Jeff

    If most sites are using the same becon id's, who would someone contact
    regarding what it is? I will try DTN: above to see if what I can find
    out from them..
