Introduction

CTWUG needs an active group of administrators to help maintain the complex network of over 400 router devices and accompanying network services. This task is split between two groups: Services Administrators and Network Administrators. The tasks and constituents of each group are detailed below to help you know who to speak to. Any wugger may apply to become an administrator - please speak to the Technical Officer if you are competent and interested.

The Technical Officer is responsible for maintaining the administrator teams, and is the principle guardian of all CTWUG owned infrastructure and data. If you have any concerns with the administrators listed below, please approach the Technical Officer, or the Committee directly.

Please note this document does not fully encompass the administration of privately owned high sites. Those will have their own administrative policies in addition to what is documented here.


Network Administrators

Network Administrators possess CTWUG Radius logins, providing them administrative access to all router devices involved in carrying transit traffic for CTWUG, ie. OSPF routers. Additionally they have administrator access to WiND, and physical access to CTWUG owned high sites. No additional access to infrastructure or data is granted by CTWUG.
