Affected Services:

Service Impact:

Cloud & Hosted Services:

Periodic, momentary interruption for server access to the network.
Access to hosted services from outside of the Syscomm network may be periodically unavailable.

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 and connections.

We will be conducting minor network enhancements to support network growth and enacting maintenance routines to improve stability and provide additional capability.

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 maintenance.

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.
