Internet Slowness (Again)

This morning from 7:30 am to 9:15 am we appear to have had some significant slowness resulting from activity in the labs.  This has been cleared up and we are operating at normal speeds once again.

 

Internet Slowness on MCN

ITS is investigating slowness since 8:30 am

Scheduled Internet Outage - 2:00 am 2/7/12

We have been notified by our Internet service provider that there will be a short interruption in service between 2:00 am and 6:00 am tonight.  Please be advised all internet services on all campuses will be down EXCEPT access from the McNichols residence halls.

 

Generally, 2:00 am to 6:00 am is a very light time on the University network.

 

External access to TC, Blackboard and all University webservers will be affected.  Users on-campus during these hours will be able to access internal (udmercy.edu) servers but nothing externally.

 

Mail sent during this time will be queued on the sender’s side however this varies from site-to-site.  Should you discover you are missing an incoming message expected during that time period, you will want to ask the sender to resend it again. 

 

ITS
