1. General Info

The Network Operations Center (NOC) is responsible for managing the data network of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH). Among many services, NOC provides:
  • network between computers of AUTH members and Internet connectivity
  • basic network services, e.g. e-mail and web-page hosting
  • advanced network services, e.g. voice-over-IP telephony and video-conferencing
  • technical assistance to all university network users

Specifically, each member of the AUTH community (faculty, staff and students) has the right to acquire a user account, which will provide access to the following personal network services:

  • e-mail (with antivirus and anti-SPAM protection)
  • dialup access to the Internet
  • personal web-pages
  • personal home directory in a central server
  • listing in the university directory
  • personal digital certificate (PKI)

At the same time, acquiring a user account from NOC, allows users to activate other university services, such as access to the central computer labs.
