We will be performing a needed firmware upgrade on the Soda Hall core router at 6AM on Sunday, August 29th. This will cause a disruption of all traffic in and out of the EECS network, as well as traffic between the various Soda Hall networks. We expect this outage will last for between 5 and 20 minutes.

As of 2:21 pm, networking for Sutardja Dai, Blum, and Calvin Halls is offline. Staff are en route to campus for further investigation.

Soda Hall Power Shutdown Tuesday 8/18 8am-8pm
On Tuesday, August 18th, Soda Hall building power will be shutdown from approximately 8am to 8pm for required facilities work. There will also be sporadic brief outages to various IRIS services between 9am and 2pm due to network maintenance.
Our primary datacenter and network core will receive backup generator support and we generally expect all services to remain online throughout the day. However, we are taking the opportunity to perform a number of network maintenance items which would have otherwise necessitated multiple outages later in the year.
As a result there will be multiple brief interruptions to various services including NetApp file servers, DHCP and DNS service, and the login.eecs and winterm terminal servers. We expect each individual interruption will last for less than five minutes, and this work will be performed between 9AM – 2PM. This post will be updated when all network maintenance is complete.
After network services are fully restored, sysadmins may need to reboot their systems, restart/remount nfs file systems, etc. to get fully back online.

Brief Network Border Interruption
Today between 1206 and 1212, EECS networks were isolated from the outside world due to an unanticipated routing protocol behavior during a reconfiguration related to our firewall replacement project. This has been corrected and there will be no further issues.
