TTU Network and VPN Services

Multifactor Authentication (MFA)	Multifactor authentication (MFA) is an additional layer of security added to the authentication process. The purpose of MFA is to ensure you are the only person who can access your account, even if someone knows your password.
eRaider Account Management	Your eRaider account is your Texas Tech electronic identification. It is a single username and password that is required to access many resources at TTU.
eRaider Web Sign-in	eRaider Web Sign-in is a service which allows Texas Tech users to authenticate to web applications using their eRaider account. Developers can integrate eRaider authentication into their application.

TTUnet VPN Service	A TTUnet VPN connection enables you to send and receive data from a non-TTU network as if your computing device was directly connected to the TTUnet network. This allows access to protected TTU resources from a remote location.

TTUnet and TTUguest Wireless Access


TTUguest Wi-Fi Access on TTU Campus	Guests without an eRaider can visit the service desks on the ground floor of the University Library for a temporary password. Since the guest Wi-Fi password is changed every few weeks, you may request a new password when your Wi-Fi password expires. For security reasons, we are only able to provide passwords in person.
Get Guest Wi-Fi Password	Guests may contact the TTUS or TTU faculty or staff member who has authorized or sponsored the event on campus. Faculty or staff members who agree that the guest is a legitimate guest can look up the current password

TTU has agreements with some software vendors that allow us to distribute software to our users. The contract that we sign with each vendor specifies who can use their software (students, faculty/staff, remote campuses, etc.) Here are a few rules related to the campus agreements: • IMPORTANT: Some software downloads are only available to specific roles within Texas Tech. For example, retired faculty/staff are not authorized to purchase the campus agreement software, and students are not licensed for the Adobe software. For the latest details on which roles can access which software, please view the eRaider Account Software Profile : Keep any special product keys given to you in a safe, secure place. Do not disclose the special product keys to anyone. Do not loan or give your friends or relatives your CDs, DVDs, or any other installation media to install on their computer. This is a direct violation of the agreement, and you could be held personally liable. Some agreements require that students install the software on one computer only. Faculty and staff can install on computers at work where they use the software, and the license covers them for installing on one personal computer outside of work. Read each software agreement for the exact terms in detail. Campus agreements do not include free technical support. Contacting Microsoft, Symantec, or any of the other vendors to obtain technical support may result in fees/charges. For software not listed here, contact the software vendor directly, as they may offer discounts. Adobe, for example, offers discounts for college students, faculty, and staff. As always, check with the vendor for more information.

ENTX Printers - Installation and Driver support for the Xerox Printers in Bldg 555 and 552

To get the driver for the

AltaLink C8155

on Windows 11, you should download the appropriate driver package from the official Xerox support website. For many network-connected Xerox devices, including the C8155, the Xerox Global Print Driver is the recommended option.

Step 1: Download the driver

Navigate to the Xerox support page for the AltaLink C8100 series, which includes the C8155 model.
Under the "Drivers" section, select Windows 11 as your operating system.
Choose your desired driver. The two most common options are the Global Print Driver (GPD) and the specific C81xx driver.
- Xerox Global Print Driver: This single driver can be used for many different Xerox models and is ideal for network environments. Select either the PCL6 or PostScript (PS) version, both of which are compatible with Windows 11.
- AltaLink C81xx V4 Print Driver: This is a model-specific driver package. As with the GPD, you can choose between PCL6 and PostScript.
Accept the license agreement and download the driver package.

Step 2: Install the driver
The recommended installation method for a network-connected printer on Windows 11 is to use the "Add a printer manually" option. This lets you specify the printer's IP address.

Open Settings and go to Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.
Click Add device. After a moment, a link will appear that says "Add manually" or "The printer that I want isn't listed"—click it.
In the "Add Printer" wizard, select Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings and click Next.
Choose Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port from the dropdown menu. Click Next.
Enter the IP address of your
C8155. ***Please ask our ENTX IT Department for the IP addresses***
printer. It is recommended to deselect the option to query the printer automatically.
On the next screen, click Have Disk....
Click Browse... and navigate to the folder where you saved the driver files you downloaded from the Xerox website. You will need to extract the ZIP file first.
Select the driver file and click OK. Follow the remaining prompts to complete the installation and give your printer a name.
