All,
On Wednesday June 19 at 7:00am EDT (11:00 UTC) we will upgrade the
IOS on the Telecommunication Operations Center (TOC) non-secure
router (NWS Washington, DC).
We expect the downtime to last about 30 minutes.
The affected router is located outside the SOC firewall. Users can
expect some interruption in the following types of services:
Access across links directly connected to this router (e.g., NWS
regions)
Internet access to ftp servers
Access to our web servers
Access to servers from local Campus networks
Data flowing through our secure router should not be affected.
This includes direct connections to our secure router, such as,
NCEP
DATMS-U
GTS links
Radar multicast
SAS customers
If the scheduled date is designated a Critical Weather Day, the outage
will be
postponed.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this outage may cause. Please
contact me if the timing of this outage presents a critical problem for
your operations.
Please forward this message to anyone who will be affected by this
action but was left off the mailing list. I would appreciate if you
would send me the email address of anyone that should be informed of
scheduled downtime in the future, but was not included in the current
list. Also, inform me if you wish to have your name removed from this
list.
