EITS will conduct network maintenance on Friday, March 10, from 6:30 p.m. to Saturday, March 11, at 3:30 a.m., that will result in potentially brief intermittent disruptions of in-bound and out-bound campus Internet access and web applications based on campus.

Once this maintenance is completed, application owners are encouraged to test their systems. Please report any issues to the EITS Help Desk at 706-542-3106.

For this maintenance, technicians will be completing firewall maintenance.

The maintenance work will impact people accessing UGA technology services both on and off the main Athens campus during the maintenance times.

For people on campus during the maintenance window, they may experience brief disruptions accessing external, non-UGA web services, such as the Internet and UGAMail.

For people off campus during the maintenance window, they may experience brief disruptions accessing UGAMail, websites hosted by UGA, the main UGA website (www.uga.edu), the Virtual Private Network (VPN), Archpass and web services hosted by EITS. They may also experience disruptions to UGA’s Central Authentication System (CAS) to log in to UGA-provided web services, such as Athena, eLearning Commons (eLC), lynda.com and the UGA Employee Self Service website.

Additional details and progress reports will be posted at status.uga.edu. This specific maintenance work is posted on the Status website at: http://status.uga.edu/#/incidents/2779597.
