The following work is being completed: ITS is replacing the Pullman Core switches due to aging infrastructure. This work will involve Pullman Border and Pullman Campus/DataCenter firewall failovers.

All affected groups: WSU Pullman

All affected processes: Internet and VoIP phone connectivity. The firewall failovers will cause a one- to two-second delay in traffic each time, possibly affecting very sensitive jobs.

Follow up steps customers need to take: If VoIP phones do not return to service after the maintenance window, please reboot the phone.
