20050915: network mods

On Monday Sept 19, 2005 at 6:30am EDT (10:30 UTC), we will modify the network configuration at the NWS Telecommunications Gateway (NWSTG Washington, DC).
A maintenance period of 1hr is scheduled, but we hope the actual downtime will be less. 

Affected Traffic:
The scheduled network modifications are part of the TG migration to its replacement network structure.
We expects outages of varying lengths during maintenance period. Some traffic may be affected for a short time period while other traffic may encounter longer interruptions. 


Critical Weather:

If the scheduled date is designated a Critical Weather Day, the outage
will be postponed.


We apologize for any inconvenience that this outage may cause.  Please
contact me if the timing of this outage presents a critical problem for
your operations.

Please forward this message to anyone who will be affected by this
action but was left off the mailing list.  I would appreciate if you
would send me the email address of anyone that should be informed of
scheduled downtime in the future, but was not included in the current
list.  Also, inform me if you wish to have your name removed from this
list.
