IT Policy
Computing Facility:
With a view to provide the best computing facility, the Institute has state of the art
systems available on campus as well as brand new up to date laptops for all the
students. We believe that having proper hands-on exposure to the industry standard
equipment is vital for the managers of tomorrow.
Operating system & Software
All our systems are equipped with either Ubuntu Linux Operating Systems or Windows
Operating System. Software like SPSS are available for students. Other specialized
software like SAP is also available for 2nd year students taking IT as speciliazation(
major or minor).
Internet connectivity & networking
The Institute is served by a dedicated 10 Mbps connection which is available
throughout the campus. For Laptop users a secure Wireless LAN is also available in the
campus. Network Security is provided by a robust Firewall as well as a personal
software firewall on each system.
Each student is provided with his or her personal email account, which is good for
lifetime usage. All students are required to check their emails regularly. Misuse of these
emails or sending unsolicited mails or subscribing to junk mail will be monitored and
dealt with strictly.
IILM’s Intranet
Every students is provided with an account of 37 signals software. Students can use it to
access Basecamp (learning management system) which provides complete academic
resources for classes. These may be accessed from http://37signals.com/
Laptops
IILM will select an appropriate laptop for the students. These would be handed over to
the students on a pre-assigned date. Laptops are used extensively in the learning
process at IILM, therefore you would be required to bring them to campus on all
teaching days. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled and ensures constant connectivity. You are
expected to use the service judiciously. Neither IILM nor the manufacturer will be
responsible for any breakage or theft. Warranty is limited to the first year only. Students
however may decide to purchase an additional year's warranty directly from the
manufacturer. Assistance in logging complains with the service center or resolving level
one troubleshooting may be channelled through a designated technician available on
campus certain days of the week. Absolutely no software related help can be provided
with respect to self installed or manipulated software. It is each student's responsibility
to safeguard their laptops against viruses, spyware and other malware. Students will get a preloaded Operation System from IILM on their respective laptops. IILM wont be responsiblefor any damage to the operating system after handing over the laptop to the students. If any other operating system is installed by the student on his/her laptop then IILM wont be responsible for that operating system. IILM may take action against students found doing unauthorized downloads or misusing bandwidth in any unproductive or undesired manner. The Mac Id of such a student will be blocked for 2 weeks.
For all complains and level one troubleshooting related to laptops send a mail to : [email protected]
