The Swanson lab is located in 240 Upson Hall. Four computers are available for in-person use and eight for remote use.
There are a limited number of computers and many remote users due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Please be sensitive to this and log out of the computers when you are done. Your cooperation is appreciated!
Machines 17, 20, 23 and 26 are reserved for in-person use. The rest of the machines have been made available for remote use. Remote machines # 21, 22, 24 have Wasp and #25 has the Adobe suite.
Easy way to connect remotely :
First, establish a VPN connection to the campus network before using a remote lab computer unless you are on some parts of the Cornell campus network. VPN requires two-step login.
Then, use the remote access portal to Update (Oct. 2020): A remote access portal has been set up for the Swanson lab to simplify the connection process. You may want to try that: : https://remoteaccess.labstats.com/cornell-swanson-lab.html
The Swanson lab computers have "swsn" in their names. Extra computers from the Orange computer lab with "orange" in their names have been added to the pool to accommodate overflow. The "orange" computers are less powerful but have the Ansys research license on them which has no restriction on the node count.
Make sure your remote desktop client is the most recent. Some older versions do not connect properly and give nondescript errors which are difficult to troubleshoot.
