Sample Letter to IT

If you are struggling to connect or use our services, you may need to involve your IT team. Here is a template to make that easier.

Hi IT,

We're partnering with zFairs and need to make sure services are available to our staff and students while on our network. We will be using zFairs video conferencing solutions in conjunction with our event. Can you ensure these services are accessible on our network. You can test the video conferencing services by having three different devices browse to https://jitsi.zfairs.com/video-test where at least one of the devices is on the network. While on this page you should be able to hear and see the other person.

You can see zFairs' network requirements at https://wiki.zfairs.com/index.php?title=Network_requirements

Thank you,
