This authorisation must be relayed to the help desk where a task will be logged for the access to be granted.

A: Yes, currently sites that cause a large volume of traffic and do not have a direct connection with the provision of the services rendered by the University are blocked. These currently include radio streaming and refreshing screen savers.
