We will be conducting maintenance on our core routers in 350 E Cermak Rd, Chicago. This maintenance was originally scheduled for Sunday, February 16th, but was cancelled due to a network event at the time. Date: Sunday, March 2, 2014 We will be performing maintenance on our core routers at 350 E Cermak Rd to increase capacity between them. This work will allow us to better support the continued growth of our network. We expect the customer impact of this maintenance to be minimal, though some brief periods of localized inaccessibility and suboptimal routing may occur. While the work itself may only take a few minutes of configuration, we are allowing extra time to allow for extensive testing. This will give us the ability to ensure that no further issues will occur. If you have any questions regarding this maintenance, please feel free to contact us in response to this email at noc@steadfast.net. Read more » | |

This will enable the switches to make better routing decisions and better utilize the capacity to the core routers at 350 E Cermak Rd. We expect the customer impact of this maintenance to be minimal, though some brief periods of localized inaccessibility and suboptimal routing may occur.

We have scheduled a major upgrade to our management portal (https://manage.steadfast.net). This upgrade adds many new features, but most will not be immediately visible to end users. As a result, the user interface will not change substantially. Background changes in the future will allow us to improve automation and add additional tools to the portal to provide better service. The process has been scheduled during the daytime due to our vendor's scheduling window. Date: Tuesday, January 7th, 2014 Customer Impact: Read more » | |
