On Saturday June 28th starting at 9am and continuing until 4pm, the University Networking team will be replacing the existing campus core with two new Arista 7508’s. This upgrade is being done because the current core devices are very close to end-of-life and will not meet the needs of the campus into the future. The new platform will allow for greater bandwidth going forward. The first upgrade, which is part of this change, will increase the uplinks to the Enterprise network from 4x10gig connections to 4x25gig connections. Along with the upgrade to the Enterprise Network, University Networking will move all buildings that connect to the current Homewood campus core to the new campus core. This process will require sporadic but brief outages of up to 3 minutes throughout the change window. We are not anticipating any long outages, just the brief outages while we move fiber connections from one core to the other.
