As part of the Network capability uplift within MeRC(Monash eResearch Centre), a maintenance window is planned to upgrade the backbone infrastructure.
The main benefits of this upgrade will be:
Additional redundancy within the 'core' tier of the network
An upgrade in port speed from 10/40G to 100G and therefore bandwidth through the backbone
Consistency in the network design and architecture across the DC and Core of the network
A topology that lends itself to the addition of future security appliances
Continued integration with our centrally managed automation systems
When
Planned Start: 15:00 , Friday, 27th Nov 2020 (AEDT)
Planned Finish: 23:00 , Friday, 27th Nov 2020 (AEDT)
Total : 8 hrs
Interruption
All platforms including research cloud in the MeRN(Monash eResearch Network) data centre to the Monash University Corporate data centre may experience a 1-2sec interruption as traffic is adjusted.
Instruments at the building in Clayton campus connected to MeRN will experience two interruptions
1-2sec between 3pm-4pm
1hr or so between 6pm-7pm due to the physical migration effort
Note:
Within AZ or intra AZs(monash-01, monash-02, monash-03) or connection to/from external network(for example: google or other sites in Nectar) is not affected with this change.
