Athletics and the Tenant buildings on Centennial are the only buildings not in PLA ground Building Infrastructure Projects Research 4 under construction CFL, DH Hill, Cox, MRC in design UPS - Developing list for FY2015/16, replacements will start in Fall. This is being done to minimize dead battery outage Campus Backbone Cisco ACE Load balancer: Cisco recently provided a security update that was applied on September 19th during the data center maintenance window. New Patch Management Standard - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zaV-JBYDQU2mgLAhQuO0q75EgpE8caGOSYNUFS91p6Q/edit All 5 MDF network management vlans moved to MPLS L3VPN. All ComTech data center network management VLANs moved to MPLS L3VPN. We may not need to place backbone router control plane functionality behind MPLS L3VPN. Backbone IOS upgrade required again due to critical security fixes (CVE high). Planning backbone fiber circuit migration away from the legacy Cox cross connect due to the need for additional BDF space within that room. Most of this will be transparent. This must happen before further progress is made in moving other equipment to new circuits. IPS/IDS equipment will be placed in-line with PCI CDE traffic after OIT S&C provides an informational session to stakeholders. Continuing to finalize a significant portion of the centralized services infrastructure at SMDF and CMDF ResNet: 5Gb/s bandwidth holding; only 8.5GB dropped by rate-limiter since mid-August which is a significant improvement Looking into future WAN connectivity options to NCREN (Nx10G vs 100G) - both Internet gateways will be “active” until we implement additional WAN connectivity.
