organisations, individuals and services attached to networks, reachable by JANET
• May be used by a User Organisation and its Members for any lawful activity that is in furtherance of the aims and policies of the User Organisation

What is “Unacceptable Use”? • Anything illegal • Things that education networks don’t do • Anti-social things
Copyright JNT Association 2010 Netskills BCE Event – Sep 2010 15
Other Networks • Access to other networks via JANET • Breach of AUP of remote network • Breach of good practice which is likely
to damage the reputation of JANET
Copyright JNT Association 2010 Netskills BCE Event – Sep 2010 16
Use of JANET in BCE • To collaborate with a business or
community partner also connected directly to JANET because the nature of the collaboration requires the special characteristics of JANET, rather than rely upon the partner’s Internet connection
• As its network supplier when it is itself supplying IT services to a business or community partner.
