Description

On June 5, 2012 at 5:00PM there will be maintenance on the internal switches in the SDSC machine room that service Sierra. In our continuing efforts to upgrade and replace legacy network equipment, all layer 3 services will be moved from the current Cisco 6509 switches to our new Juniper MX-960 equipment. This will cause a momentary bounce of all routing protocols as the convergence occurs. We are anticipating a much shorter response, but a 2 hour window is reserved to respond to any unexpected issues.

** Note, this outage is for this evening ***
