Network Registration (NetReg)
NetReg is a term used when connecting a computer or mobile device to the UL Lafayette campus network. It is defined as registering your computer's network interface card (NIC) on the campus network. It is a security precaution put in place to ensure only authorized users of the UL Lafayette campus community have access to the network resources.
Once your computer has a connection to the network, either wirelessly or wired, the network compares the unique hardware address of the network card in your computer to a list of authorized addresses.
