ITS will be upgrading some of our internal network links between one of our commercial internet providers and the campus core network. In order to do this we will be taking down the one of our internet links each morning Wednesday-Friday at 7am when there is a very small amount of traffic. Our other commercial internet connection has plenty of extra capacity to handle peak usage during this time of year.

We will bring the link up each afternoon to ensure redundancy overnight should something spectacular happen.

Most users won't notice when we take the link down as most connections will retry and go out the other internet link, however there may be a small blip so if you do notice something try reloading your webpage or restarting your file copy and it should work again. If you still have issues as always feel free to contact the IT Support Centre at x36666.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause, but are confident that this work will result in improved internet connectivity for the University.
