How to access the CERN computing network

CERN Computing Rules

Registration of all computers connected to CERN's network is obligatory - only registered computers are allowed network access.
Visitors can connect their private laptop to the CERN domain but at their own risks. CERN therefore accepts no liability for any breakdown, loss of data or any breach of confidentiality.
Visitors should also be aware of the Rules for Using CERN Computing Facilities (Operational Circular nº 5).
