Greetings CIX-ATL members,

Next Friday, January 27, between 12:01am and 3am, we will perform service-affecting maintenance on several components of the IX.  No action is required on your part.

For the duration of the maintenance, we will block BGP traffic across the IX as described in BCP 214. Sessions will re-establish after the maintenance is complete.

Members whose ports are connected at American Tower and Cogent (55 Marietta St) and Equinix AT2/3 (56 Marietta St) will be moved to new switches and will experience a brief loss of link as ports are migrated.

Members whose ports are delivered at all other sites, including QTS, Edgeconnex, and Equinix AT1, will see a loss of link as firmware on the switches at those sites is updated.

In the event that you experience trouble after the completion of the migration, please contact the Community IX NOC at noc@communityix.org

Regards,

Ryan Woolley
for the Community IX Technical Committee
