| - | Most of the nodes are Soekris, model [http://www.soekris.com/net4826.htm 4826]. They are placed on the office rooms in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th floors of the building. Both the main tower, and the condor tower house these nodes. Placing of nodes and configuring is a tedious process that has to go through CSL. See below for contact information. We use Power Over Ethernet (POE) to for power control of these nodes. They are connected to 5 POE switches | + | Most of the nodes are Soekris, model [[http://www.soekris.com/net4826.htm|4826]].
