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.

BWRC core switch back on service
Around 1:50pm this afternoon, BWRC core router can not pass the network traffic as the CPU load hit nearly 98%. However, the networks within BWRC remained functional.

Router Failure
Just before 4 PM today, a core router management module failed. The unit did try to fail over to the backup but it was not a complete cut over and some services were disrupted. We attempted to reboot the module but that caused a more massive failure in the chassis for less than 1 min. The bad module has been removed and service has been restored. We are continuing to troubleshoot the first problem with the vendor.

Network Outage on 2nd Floor of Soda Hall
A network switch on the second floor of Soda had a hardware failure on May 6th between 4:45pm and 5:25pm. The switch serves the instructional lab and instructional servers. We replaced suspect hardware in order to prevent future failures.
A permanent fix will require us to replace the entire hardware chassis and we will announce future network downtime when we are ready to complete the procedure.
