Access to Internet and University Computer Systems
Access to campus web systems and intranet systems (university systems) depends on:
- The system you are trying to connect to (the identification method is different between university systems)
- Your status (some apps are open only to guests, others only to students or only to academic staff)
- Your location (on campus – all networks are open according to status/at home – eligible can connect from home or abroad to the university network via encrypted and secure communication (VPN))
- Connection type (wired=communication cable connected to computer and communication port on wall or wireless network (Wi-Fi))
Wired Connection
Staff computers in offices and conference rooms are connected to a wired network connection.
Public computer stations – in the computer centers, computer labs and university hallways – are connected by a wired connection.
In addition, there are public communication ports in some dormitories and campuses that can be connected with a communication cable, username and password.
Wireless Connection
In large areas of the campuses and student dormitories, wireless networks (Wi-Fi) are deployed for use by students, staff and guests.
Staff and students, visiting other academic institutions, can use their Hebrew University (RA account) to access wireless networks at many other universities in the world.
Off-campus Connections
There are university systems that are accessible to eligible users on the university's campuses, but are closed from home or abroad. For example, connecting to databases, servers, or remote access to a computer.
To access these systems off campus both a Remote Access account and the use of secure and encrypted network (Samba VPN) are required.
Authentication
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem provides customers with a large number of computer services. Each service group has an authenication method that includes its own user name and password.
Common Methods of Authentication at the University:
Personal code - registration system for courses dormatories and more.
Microsoft-AD (Active Directory) - This account is used for connecting to university computers (office and public computers), staff mail-Savion, access to Microsoft services including the 365 agreement, MyPlace services, access to applications and more.
Remote Access (RA) - Connection to campus wireless networks, connection to secure network from home VPN/Samba and more.
One Time Password generator card (OTP) - It's added to other forms of authentication and gives more privileges in different systems including budgets and etc.
Payroll system for staff - Viewing online salaries, reporting vacation days and more. http://mysalary.huji.ac.il
NEW Guest registration form - This form is for the use of departmental secretaries. The form is designed to streamline the guest registration process to the university computer system in order to open access to visitors, to these systems. These systems include personal code, remote access and e-mail. Access to each system will be given according to need and privilege.
EKMD Accounts - Accounts that were opened in the past on the Ein Karem campus, today no new accounts are opened .
Personal Code
Restore Personal code Change Personal code
What is the Personal code?
Each student/ staff member is issued with a 4 - 5 digit code that serves them to access the various university systems
Using the personal code, you can connect to registration system for courses dormatories and more.
Where can you find the personal code?
Students can receive their personal code when registering online on the University's website on the mail that they entered during the registration process. If the email is not found in the box or under spam, you can log in and restore your code or contact the support center at 025883450.
Students and staff who have a personal code and want to change it they can change the code.
Microsoft 365 AD (Active Directory) Account
Microsoft 365 AD Account
Microsoft 365 AD accounts are used for all Microsoft services at the Hebrew University. An account is automatically opened for all staff members and students and is used for the following services:
- Savion email for administrative staff ( addresses are in the format username@savion.huji.ac.il)
-
Access to office work stations and lab and public computers (Access to the CC domain)
-
Access to the MyPlace service
-
In addition, the account allows administrative staff and students to access Microsoft 365 services, and for STEM students to access Azure programs. It is also used for SP applications (for example, the scholarship system). When making a SP application the username format is: CC \ username.
Administrative staff: To access Microsoft 365 services use the username format: username@savion.huji.ac.il
Active students:To access Microsoft 365 services use the username format: username@on.huji.ac.il

Printing from Public Computers
The Mafil company operates “public” printers on all four University campuses at various public computing areas including computer centers, dormitories and libraries. Both black and white and color printing is available.
Payment is made via credit card or rechargeable print cards which can be purchased from machines located in each computer center.
Sending Printing Jobs from public computers
Be sure to select print from the file menu (rather than press the print button).
Select the printer type:
- Black and white duplex printing- select the BW DUPLEX printer (usually the default)
- Single-sided black and white printing- select the “BW Simplex” printer
- Color printing- choose COLOR printer (single-sided printing only)
Sending Printing Jobs from a private computer- Cloud printing- Print Mobile
*It is recommended to send via a public computer instead since it is the more reliable method.
Cloud printing (Print Mobile) allows you to send documents for printing to public printers by sending an email to the printer email address. The print job should be an attached file with a common format (such as tif, png, jpeg, doc, docx, PDF, etc.). Each printer has a different email address.
We recommend that you send each file separately. In order to maintain the layout and fonts, a PDF file must be sent. Do not send files larger than 20MB, of with file names longer than 30 characters.
Listed below are listed the different printer email addresses:
Mount Scopus

Mount Scopus
The Mount Scopus campus has over 750 computer stations for student service. Most of the stations are concentrated in two computer centers. The first center, named after Berl Gings, was inaugurated in 2000 and includes about 230 computers. The second center, named after Agnes Gings, was inaugurated in June 2005 and includes about 200 computers. In the computer centers we offer teaching classrooms with advanced teaching systems, various printing services, multimedia means as well as training and consulting services throughout the hours of operation. The main emphasis in operating computer centers is based on the use of information systems as part of a command and control system that enables effective management of computer resources and the ability to immediately diagnose and deal with faults, and offer quality and efficient service alongside advanced hardware.

Connecting via Wireless
Wireless Access within the University
Wireless communication, also called Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) -
The University has many access points that allow access to three main wireless networks:
- HUJI-Guest – An open network for guests (does not allow access to databases)
- Eduroam - An international project that allows access to networks in all universities with a university user name and password (instructions for opening a RA account).
- HUJI-Dorm – An open network that is available in some dorms.
Today most public areas have Wi-Fi coverage, including many classrooms and halls. It is a prioty of the university to add new access points.
The decision where to add new points is a factor of demand, teaching and research needs, as well as the constraints resulting from physical structure. You are welcomed to contact us to clarify points of access or raise the need for better access. Please specify the exact place where you encountered difficulty and we will be happy to provide a response about future plans.

LAN Connection
Connection to the internet on campus and dorms depends on the type of connection:
1. Wi-Fi (wireless connection) – when a wireless network exists in the area
2. LAN connection (a wire between the computer and a port in the wall )
LAN Connection
Computers of the staff in offices and meeting rooms are connected to a LAN network.
At computer centers, labs , at public spaces and computer farms, are connected using ethernet cables to the LAN network.
On the campus area, libraries and some dorms there are possibilities to connect to the LAN network using an ethernet cable to connect a private computer. An user name and password are needed for identification .
Connection at the Office
In order to connect a computer in an office (situated in campus) you have to check the followings :
1. The computer has to have a proper operating system and to be suitable for the network.
2. There is a communication port available and active. For that you need that the computer coordinator and the communication team to check the port. If there isn’t an available port, the computer coordinator has to check the possibilities to create a new port (it depends on technical conditions as space, possibility to add a port and also if there is a budget for a new port).
If a new port is needed, the computer coordinator will fill in a form to order it and will send it to the communication team.
The connection of a computer to a new port has to be done by the computer coordinator in collaboration with the communication team. The same procedure is required anytime you change the computer connected to a certain port .
The network of the university requires that a computer will work only connected to a certain port . Any change of the computer or the place of the computer has to be defined anew in the network . That is the job of the computer coordinator in collaboration with the communication team.
Public communication ports and LAN communication ports at the dorms
There are a lot of such ports where is possible to connect a laptop with an Ethernet cable.
In order to connect to these ports you need to create a RA account.
After creating a RA account, follow the relevant guide according to your operating system
