Hi all, I'd be very interested to see what other institutions do. We're also on IP, EZproxy and Shibboleth at the moment. Would Shibboleth-only authentication present problems for walk-in users for instance?

Same here. We use a range of authentication but obviously Shibboleth is more secure than IP and we are trying to move that way. It's hard to do it with everything though so would be really interested to hear others experiences.

Hi Marie, We do not do this - we have access via a mixture of Shibboleth, IP and EZproxy - but I would be very interested to hear the responses to this thread, if you were able to collate and share with the group.

Dear all, Some years ago we switched off IP access on campus in favour of relying on shibboleth authentication and our proxy server from on and off campus. There is some resistance to this now with some users advising that we are the only University that have done this so I would be very interested to find out if any others have also switched off IP authentication, and any feedback that they have received following this. Happy for replies on or off list and to collate answers for the group if any interest.
