Description

On Sunday 25 October, IT Services will be upgrading the campus network routers. This essential maintenance will start at 8.00 am and conclude at 4.00 pm. During this window we anticipate one outage of up to 15 minutes for each building, as the routers upgrade. At these points, there will be no access to wired and wireless networks. Although individual buildings will only be affected by one outage, access to the network should be considered ‘at risk’ for the whole maintenance period. This work supports the continuing stability and security of our university systems. Most university buildings on the Campus network will be affected. Buildings NOT affected by this change are listed below: • 1 - 9 Old Park Hill • 8 - 10 Berkely Square • 12 - 13 Berkely Square • Accommodation @ 33 • ASSL • Augustine Courtyard • Beacon House, Victoria Rooms, 1-5 Whiteladies Road • Botany Greenhouses • Cathedral Square • Coombe Dingle (Entire site) • Dorothy Hodgkin Building • 31 Great George Street • Howard House • Langford site • NCC • Richmond Building • Southmead Hospital • Sloane Robinson Building The following buildings routers are being upgraded but should not experience any loss of wired or wireless networks: • MVB • TQEC Research Hub - Bristol Digital Futures Institute (BDFI) • Trinity Quay - Bristol Dental School
