Remote Access

The CSL's remote access servers

The CSL employs a remote access functionality called Remote Access Servers (RASes for short) for students and staff to access their CSL files outside school grounds. Currently, we have two remote access servers (ras1 and ras2) which are both VMs that are the only machines beyond a select few that provide incoming SSH from outside the CSL network.

We use fail2ban, an intrusion detection software, to block repeated mass authentication attempts against the remote access servers.

Issues related to the Remote Access Servers should be directed to the Infrastructure Lead.
