Y27 - Network migration to NAC

  • Building Y27 will be migrated to a new network setup on 01.11.2023 - the whole day.

  • Our server room is inside the building, so all services will be down as well.

  • During the whole day, the institute will be offline, even WIFI and local desktops will have outages.

  • It is recommended on this day not to work, neither on-site nor remote with I-MATH IT services.

  • All I-MATH services will be inaccessible: Websites, Mail, Thinlinc, Compute, ...
    • Email sender from outside I-MATH might receive a mailer daemon error about 'late delivery', but all mails should be delivered after the building is online again.
    • Computations on our compute servers will continue to run, but won't be accesible during the migration. If the programs needs network acces (license server, internet) they might have problems.

  • SeminarLive Streaming / Recording won't work in Y27.

  • Beamers in Y27 have to be controlled by remote.

Action

  • Thinlinc Terminals and printers will be migrated by I-MATH IT Support .
  • Users with Desktops or Notebooks who uses LAN (WLAN is not affected) have to activate the network authentication (see UZH-NAC-Infos-Users-V1.3-EN.pdf) with their personal credentials.

ZI information (incl. steps to activate the LAN network configuration):

Roadmap

  • NAC Migration starts at 07:00. All network (LAN & WLAN) will be switched off.

  • We expect that the server room will be back online around 11:00. Depending on the problems, hopefully most services will be back online again (but not the Terminals in the offices).
  • Update: We'll install OS Updates in the morning and reboot all thinlinc servers.

  • Around 16:00 we expect that the Thinlinc Terminals in Y27 are also back online again.

FAQ

  • Q: The Terminal in my office shows no login window.
    • A: Please power off/on or press a key (if this is offered). The first boot might take some time. If this does not help, contact I-MATH IT Support.
  • Q: My Desktop / Laptop has no internet.
    • A: WLAN: wait until the WLAN is back online.
    • A: LAN: Configure your computer - DE, EN
