# Tagungszugang (Conference Access)

**Tagungszugang** is a time-limited WLAN access service provided by the [[universitatsrechenzentrum-urz]] specifically for conferences and events. It is distinct from [[eduroam]] in that it is designed for short-term guest access rather than long-term academic federation.

## Availability and Limitations
- **Location**: Only available within the buildings of the [[universitat-greifswald]].
- **Exclusion**: This service is **not** available in [[universitatsmedizin]] buildings. Guests at the medical faculty must contact the UMG IT network team separately.

## Request and Provisioning
Access is managed as a technical resource through the [[ums]]:
- **Resource Type**: "Tagungs-WLAN".
- **Requirements**: The applicant must provide a descriptive username, the conference name, a URL to the event website, and the specific date range.
- **Testing**: The URZ activates the access 2 days before the start date to allow for testing.

## Technical Connection Process
The connection involves a two-step authentication process:
1. **Network Layer**: Connect to the WLAN SSID **Tagung** using the password `tagung@unihgw`.
2. **Application Layer**: After connecting, the user is redirected to a [[captive-portal]]. Here, they must enter the unique username and password generated by the URZ and sent via email.

Once generated, these credentials can be distributed to all participants of the conference.
