Handling of external access to TUnet (VPN, lecture halls, WLAN):

  • Outgoing traffic as shown in the table above; Port 25/TCP (for sending mail) to external mail servers is also blocked for WLAN and lecture halls.
  • Traffic coming from the Internet is blocked. SSH is excluded from student workplaces at the University of Vienna due to inter-university studies.
