OIT’s networking team will be performing critical maintenance on core Provider Edge (PE) devices across campus on Sunday, May 17, from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. During this window, users may experience intermittent, rolling network and internet outages as equipment is patched and services are restored in phases.
What to Expect
- Temporary disruptions to campus internet and network-dependent services
- Rolling outages affecting different areas/buildings at varying times
- Brief interruptions rather than a full campus-wide outage
Impacted Services
- Wired and wireless internet connectivity
- Access to campus systems requiring network connectivity (e.g., VPN, shared drives, some web services)
We appreciate your patience as we complete these updates to improve the reliability and performance of campus network infrastructure. For questions or to report issues following the maintenance window, please contact the IT Service Desk at itsd@ua.edu or 205-348-5555.
