COMPLETE: Campus Network Maintenance - Tuesday 7/9 from 6am-8am

UPDATE: This maintenance has been successfully completed.

ITS will be conducting several maintenances on Tuesday, July 9th from 6am until 8am.

One of our primary Internet Service Providers (ISPs) will be upgrading their network and we will be making some changes on our end in preparation of these upcoming changes.

ITS will also take this time to test and make some network changes within our data center in order to improve network reliability and stability.

These network testing and changes may cause our connection to our primary ISP to go down, however, our backup ISP will take over. Users should see little Internet or connectivity issues during this time, however, there maybe some cases of speed degradation during the maintenance window. 

We apologize for this inconvenience. If you have any questions, please contact ITS at its@manhattan.edu or at extensions x-7973.
