Cisco Clean Access activated in Palo Verde
On midnight, Resnet activated CCA in Palo Verde. Of course, nobody was available to deal with problems. They seem to think that graduate students follow their 9-5 routine...
The problems I have heard so far center around devices with no browsing ability, e.g., VoIP phones.
Also, spouses of residents, who obviously don't have a UCI network id, since they are not studying, are unable to access the Net.
A fellow Palo Verde resident has put up a page on how to avoid installing the CCA agent on Windows machines here.
I have also mentioned on my blog how to change the user agent string for browsers.

This new change sucks. It has taken me over an hour to get to this site and attempt to post. Earlier today I needed to send and receive thesis documents and could not because of the stupid CCA screwing up the network. I have a Macantosh and I still have to deal with this crap. Thanks for having a place for us to voice our frustrations I just wish it wasn't in vain.

Thanks for your post.Unfortunately, the Resnet people are ignoring even reasonable requests, and are essentially showing us the finger. Their disregard for us, their customers, is mindboggling.
They only react to pressure from their superiors.
So, don't give up yet. You should talk with your advisor and your department head or dean to help make known to the academic side of campus that Resnet is hindering our research work. That's seems to be the only way to get them to reconsider their stance.
