How to Register Your Device on Biola's Network with UDN

 !  Note: This method is still in its beta testing phase. Please refer to our standard method to connect your device to our network via this article: How to Register Your Device on Biola's Network

bu-eagles is the university's WiFi network for IoT devices like Xbox, WiFi printers, Alexa, AppleTV, etc.

Devices that don't support WPA3-Enterprise security may need to be registered in order to connect to or work properly on Biola's WiFi. They can easily be registered using the My Devices Portal at https://biola.splashudn.com/, and then connected to the bu-eagles WiFi network.

When you register a device in the My Devices Portal, your own personal network (User Defined Network (UDN)) is created. Devices connected to bu-eagles in your User Defined Network (UDN) can communicate with your other devices (like laptops or phones) connected to Biola-NetID if you register those devices using this process.

Please have the following ready when registering your wireless device for use on bu-eagles WiFi:

• A Device Name (a unique name to identify your device from any others you may have.) 
• A Device Description (a short description of the device: TV, Game Console, etc.)
• The Device's MAC Address (The MAC address is the unique identifier of your device and looks like this: 0A-B1-02-C3-04-D5 or 00:01:02:03:04:05, etc.)​​​

Adding IoT Devices to Your UDN

• Go to the My Devices Portal: https://biola.splashudn.com/
• Click the "I agree" checkbox, then click Continue and sign in using your Biola credentials.

• Click the Generate Password button to create your bu-eagles WPA2 WiFi password.
• Add up to 20 device MAC Addresses, Device Names, and Descriptions, and click Add to save them to your UDN.
• Connect these devices to the bu-eagles WiFi network. Use the password that was generated in the portal to connect.
