We are planning an upgrade of a switch that is utilized by some of our dedicated and co-location customers. The plan includes upgrading the 24 port switch to a new 48 port switch.

The upgrade will take place on Wednesday the 11th of November at 22:00 hours.

All dedicated and co-location clients with equipment in the cabinet shall be notified separately via email to ensure they are fully up to speed on the matter.

The new switch will be mounted and connected and then the customers simply migrated over one by one to the new switch. There should be a blip of no more than 5/10 seconds per port.

This upgrade will allow for expansion in the future.

Once the upgrade is complete I will post a status update.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Update 10:16PM - The switch migration was completed. The downtime per port was aprox 10 seconds.
