nvm I was thinking the dorms were all on the same vlan (which actually would make more sense) but there might still be a way to get it to work; for example you can remote desktop from a computer in norton to a computer in harrill (i believe this is true) so the vlans might be mostly transparent among the dorms.

 

I imagine they are transparent but it all boils down to how they have them seperated. They have the port filtering nailed to where most default protocols are blocked between the resnet subnets but other somewhat useful ones aren’t. If the right port(s) were cleared I imagine networking could route them so they go throughout the resnet system. Hard part is finding what port it is and to do that you’ll probably need to use a network analyzer to monitor system link traffic as I can’t find the ports for it listed anywhere.

 

For those who want this really bad, how about helping do some research on this front. Look through instruction manuals and/or ask MS. This process would be much easier if we had the ports.
