Where: Internet Service In & Out of Campus including VPN
Description: In order to improve service, I&TS staff will be conducting some troubleshooting of the Internet connections in conjunction with support vendors during the day on Friday. The work will likely cause at least intermittent disruption to Internet & VPN connections, but every effort to minimize the impact will be made. Recent information from our equipment vendor suggests a path to resolution with minimal disruption, but the entire maintenance window is reserved in order to allow for extensive and intrusive testing if necessary. We apologize for the disruption and very much appreciate everyone's understanding as we work to improve the overall reliability and capacity of our campus Internet service.
Services Impacted: All Campus Network services including, but not limited to, Sakai, Banner, G Suite, Campus Calendar, Web Help Desk, ePass, Library online resources, & Xfinity on Campus TV
