Multiple Firewall Maintenance Dates Beginning 12/20

Tonight, Dec. 20, ITS is upgrading the firewalls for the Information Technology Building, Sloan, and IT Staff, beginning at 8pm and completing by 10pm.

On Thursday night, Dec. 21, ITS upgrades firewalls in Neill, FSHN, and Holland beginning at 8pm and completing by 10pm.

A border upgrade takes place on Friday, Dec. 29, at 6 AM.

The ITB Data Center upgrade is slated for Tuesday, Jan 2, at 5 AM.

It is unlikely that network traffic will be affected during the upgrades. These firewalls all have additional service redundancies in place, so no service disruptions are expected.

However, technology support areas should evaluate scheduling of all necessary testing for potentially impacted applications and resources once this maintenance is complete.

If you have any questions or concerns with this maintenance schedule, please contact CougTech, 335-4357.
