Brief Network Disruption.

January 5, 2009 by IRIS Staff

All connectivity between EECS and the outside world was briefly disrupted. The exact cause of the outage is unknown; log messages are inconclusive. The primary symptom was dropped OSPF routes on the links which traverse the EECS firewall links. While nobody was actively working on the equipment at that time, it’s possible this outage is related to preliminary testing of new 10GB network links to campus. The problem seems to have resolved itself.

EECS Network Maintenance Sunday Dec 28th

December 28, 2008 by IRIS Staff

We will be upgrading the network in Soda Hall beginning at 2PM on Sunday, Dec 28th. There will be several network outages as most switches in Soda will be upgraded at this time. While each outage is expected to be brief, there will be several so the network throughout EECS and BWRC may be unstable during this time. This effects both wired and wireless networking. We are allowing a 4 hour window as there are so many switches to upgrade. All work should be complete by 6PM. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.

Two EECS switches Offline Briefly for Maintenance

December 22, 2008 by Janet Shu

The EECS switches that are serving north east side of Soda 5th floor and of Soda 6th floor will all experience brief outages on Monday, Dec 22, 2008 beginning at 7:00a.m. due to system maintenance.

The wired network will be offline and users will experience a brief (less than 5 minutes) outage while the switch is rebooted to apply new operating system code. Since some wireless networking devices are also fed by those two devices, some of wireless users will experience a brief outage as well.

At 16:34PM Friday afternoon, some subnets in Cory lost connectivity to Soda. The network recovered within 5 minutes. The border router indicated some errors; we are working closely with the vendor to find the root cause. If we need to replace any hardware to solve this issue we will announce the outage in advance.
