WHERE: PLU (Parkland) Main Campus

Current Status: Work complete as of 12:00PM, Saturday, April 18, 2026

Description:
During the morning of August 18th, 2026, Information & Technology Services will be performing an upgrade to core network services. This work will cause a series of disruptions to campus network access as well as require taking some services offline during portions of the work.

The primary service impact will be between approximately 8am to 1pm on Saturday, April 18th. During that time we will be upgrading our network core which as a precaution requires shutdown of some key services including Banner, Sakai, & Help Desk.

Continued work later on Saturday may be necessary and will typically involve more brief and localized disruptions to different segments of the network. Generally these later disruptions should be brief for any affected areas.

Service(s) Impacted: Campus Network, Sakai, Banner, Help Desk
