Guest accounts allow visitors short term access to the UC Berkeley
AirBears wireless network where available on campus. Accounts may be
created by Faculty and Staff and are valid for a period of up to a
week. AirBears guest accounts only allow access to the wireless
network; they do not provide access to wired network services such as
LIPS, campus email or other services. Longer term visitors who
require such services must apply for an
affiliate CalNet ID
in order to be eligible.
AirBears guest accounts can also be used to log on to the
Campus VPN Service.
Faculty and Staff may create, view and modify guest accounts via the
guest account management system. Note that in order to access this
system, you must authenticate via CalNet.

you.
