Campus Network and Services Scheduled Maintenance Disruption - Weekend of August 3-4, 2024

WHAT: Network upgrade weekend of August 3-4, 2024

WHEN: 08/03-04/2024 Duration: Periodic disruptions through the weekend

WHERE: PLU (Parkland) Main Campus

Current Status: Planned

Description: 

During the weekend of August 3-4, 2024 Information & Technology Services will be continuing a core network upgrade which began the weekend of May 24-25, 2024.  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 mid-morning to early afternoon on Saturday, August 3rd.  During that time we will be reconfiguring our network routing to operate on new equipment installed in May and decommissioning older equipment.

Continued work later Saturday and through the remainder of the weekend may be necessary and will typically involve more brief and localized disruptions to different physical and logical segments of the network.  Generally these later disruptions should be brief for any affected areas and will be determined based on testing of the network following the earlier work on Saturday.

Service(s) Impacted: Campus Network

Next Update: Updates provided as work progresses through the weekend
