 SUPPORT FOR PERSONAL MOBILE DEVICES ON JUNIPER NETWORK

Juniper Networks allows employees to connect to the network with their personal mobile devices and synchronize their e-mail, calendar, phone book and tasks. Juniper Networks provides documentation on how to connect devices to our Blackberry or Microsoft Push servers. The Juniper Help desk does not provide hands on assistance for the setup of personal devices.

Personal devices connected to the Juniper Network are subject to the following policies:

  1. If the device is lost or stolen, Juniper Networks must be notified since the company e-mail and phone book are company confidential data.
  2. Juniper Networks will issue a remote wipe on reported lost or stolen units. Juniper Networks is not responsible for the loss or restoral of personal data on these devices.
  3. Due to differences in remote applications Juniper cannot guarantee that all devices will correctly synchronize the calendars, phone books, e-mail folders or tasks.
  4. If Juniper Networks changes the security policy on access, the user must change their device or it will be disconnected.
Apple iPhone - Juniper Networks does not provide Apple's iPhone service on our mobile device network. This policy is mainly due to AT&T Mobility (Cingular) and Apple policies on iPhone ownership and billing. It is against Juniper policy to transfer a SIM card from a company paid mobile device to an iPhone. IPhones are covered under data plans that are not discounted and your phone will be shut off after a warning from the carrier or Juniper Help Desk. Users that do want to connect their personally paid iPhone to our e-mail client infrastructure can do so through the Exchange ActiveSync server but no assistance will be provided from Juniper Networks Help Desk.

The links below provide information on configuring your personal device onto the Juniper Network:
