Meeting Minutes

The October meeting minutes will be available at our next meeting on January 8, 2002.

Security

Nay began the meeting by introducing Loren Malm, CISSP from Ball State University and stated that he and Brian Stone of Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library would be sharing how they handle security issues. Brian Stone will be sharing what systems the library uses and how they deal with intrusion detection, scanning incident response and vulnerability testing.

Prior to the start of the meeting Malm ran a scan on the IHETS local IS machine system with instructions on what to do to fix; he characterized things as high, medium and low.

Greg Hedrick from Purdue University shared his perspective from the business side and commented that he struggles with wireless, but deals with access points, some policy but is hit hard with code red issues. There is a $30,000 onetime charge plus maintenance for ongoing windows to look at STAT, but it is less expensive. Discussion followed on the advantages of creating a list serve. Nay will follow-up with an email to everyone concerning this topic.

IP Video Project

Stockey reported on the progress of the IP video project, the first draft of 71 pages has been forwarded to Ed Tully for editing and review. Following Tully's review the document will be distributed and posted on the web. Stockey shared that this is an excellent tool and resource for everyone. The dial plan will be tested at IU, Purdue, BS and IHETS.

Cisco will conduct the testing of minuet; the results will be reviewed and shared at a later date. IP is on hold for now. Tully reported that on Thursday he would receive the decision on the direction to proceed.

The Two Basic Configurations are:

  1. Centralize
  2. Centralize IP at IHETS

No financial resources have been justified for this change. Intelent and Stan Jones prefer leaving the nodes out there.

The results of the pricing studies conducted revealed they were all coming out about the same.

The next meeting will be in months on January 8, 2002 in the IHETS Board Room at 1:30 pm.
