Umsatteln auf HomeOffice – Eine Herausforderung auch für Netzkapazitäten

Besondere Maßnahmen, wie etwa die Umstellung auf situative mobile Heimarbeit (smH)- auch gerne als HomeOffice bezeichnet, ziehen besondere Herausforderungen nach sich. Das betrifft auch die IT-Infrastruktur. Neben einem verlässlichen VPN-Service ist aber ohne Internetverbindung nichts möglich – schon gar nicht bei der Arbeit von Zuhause.
Heute erzählen wir Euch, was sich bei der Umstellung auf die Arbeit von zu Hause in Sachen Netzkapazitäten gerade zu Beginn der Umstellung an der RWTH getan hat. An dieser Stelle gilt unser Dank unseren IT Center-Kolleginnen und -Kollegen der Abteilung Netze, die uns auch hier wieder unterstützt haben.
