DESCRIPTION
We're carrying out a test of failover for our customer facing recursive DNS. There is no disruption expected, although of course because this is such a critical service we are creating an at risk PEW window. Should the test fail, it'll be immediately put back and any outage would only be expected to be a few seconds.
Resolution: Work has been completed

DESCRIPTION
It hasn't been very long since our last round of software upgrades, but we have new software we're wanting to apply. We'll be performing overnight software upgrades on our pool of LNSs and BGP routers, starting Sunmday 13th July. One LNS will be done per night, and this involves moving lines between the LNSs and upgrading when lines have been moved off. Customers may see a PPP drop and reconnect in the early hours of the morning this week as this work is carried out. Upgrades to our BGP routers will also happen overnight but should have little to no impact.
Resolution: This work has been completed.
