Dear Jono Hayes 

Official information request for detail round the Te Mana Tūhono program. 

I refer to your official information request dated 19 June 2023 for more
information concerning access permissions on N4L equipment.  The
information you have requested is enclosed. 

You have asked: 

Regarding the Te Mana Tuhono project, N4L installs network switches and
Wi-Fi access points with schools. N4L manages this hardware within a
privately hosted and maintained RUCKUS Virtual SmartZone controller(s).

(1) Have there been considerations on what access/permissions schools and
their third-party supplies have within RUCKUS Virtual SmartZone
post-installation?

N4L’s decision-making around access and permissions for schools was
developed with the Ministry of Education and subject to a Certification
and Accreditation process conducted by the MInistry. 

(2) Can N4L supply the scope of access/permissions schools have
post-installation?

Role Component Permissions
Read-Write

* Access Points
Schools and ICT Admins Smartzone Controller
* WLANs

* Switches
CLI - Switches Read-Only

Further information is provided on the Ministry of Education website and
in N4L Support articles;

(3) Can N4L outline if there are any changes to access/permissions post
stage three 'Secure Access' schools and their third-party supplies have
within the 'RUCKUS Virtual SmartZone controller'?

No, The same level of access exists following Secure Access.

(4) Can N4L report whether these access/permissions are set correctly for
schools and their third-party supplies?

N4L can report on the permissions provided to users who have access to
these systems.
