Network Maintenance Notification – 23/11/15

The following notification is to inform you of planned maintenance on the Syscomm Network which may affect your services.

Start:     23-11-2015          00:01
End:       23-11-2015          06:00

Affected Services:

Network and Transit:

Brief interruption to network transit for the following services:

  • ADSL and FTTC services
  • Dedicated Ethernet services
  • Public internet transit for Cloud and Hosted Services
  • MPLS/VPN PWAN Breakouts
  • L2TP xDSL delivery
  • PWAN Interconnect Services

Service Impact:

Network and Transit:

Periodic interruption to networking routing.
Resilient services will reconnect as services are failed-over between routers.
Non-resilient services will experience brief losses of forwarding.

xDSL Platform:

Periodic PPP drops as services are re-balanced on our LTS/LNS platforms.
Some circuits will experience brief periods of disconnection.

Outage Reason:

This window has been scheduled to extend our network reliability and deploy service improvements to ensure the long term stability of customer systems & connections.

We will be conducting minor network enhancements and commissioning additional upstream links to provide greater routing capacity to support network growth.

It is anticipated that services will be typically available throughout this window, but users should plan for a risk of interruption to service during the window.

Should customers continue to have issues beyond the completion of the maintenance window, please raise this to the attention of our support teams through your primary support channels (typically the Syscomm Portal).
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused, and thank you for your patience during these essential works.
