    Please be advised that core infrastructure maintenance has been scheduled on the 12th and 13th of January 2025 at the Durban datacenter.

    We will be expanding our infrastructure in Durban into a new cabinet.

    The plan of action is to first install a new Juniper edge router to the current cabinet and move traffic to it. We will then move two of the Cisco edge routers to the new cabinet. We will also install a new core switch in the new cabinet.

    Services affected in Durban :

    IP Transit

    National Long Distance

    International Long Distance

    General connectivity in Cape Town DC

    Virtual Datacenter access

    The fallback plan will be to remove the Juniper and install the Cisco edges back in the current cabinet.
