Body
Overview
Lenel S2 NetBox is a web-based access control and security monitoring system used to manage door access across Purdue facilities. It allows centralized control of credentials, doors, and alarms to support secure building access.
Details
Purdue recently migrated door access management from the Transact Transaction System Enterprise (TSE) to the LenelS2 NetBox access control system. This transition consolidated access control under a single platform and provided enhanced security features, improved system integrations, and a modern, web-based interface.
Door access permissions are managed by designated and authorized door owners via the Access Control Tool (ACT), which connects to the LenelS2 NetBox system in real time. All requests for door access should be routed to them.
LenelS2 NetBox is managed by the ID Card Operations Team, which provides day-to-day administration and support.
