- Offutt MILNET DDN Node Down-Time
-
- 1. Due to PSN 105 hardware upgrade and the de-installation of PSN 144 at
- Offutt AFB, the Offutt Milnet DDN node will not be operational starting
- 0900 CST until at least 1500 CST on 9 Dec 91. As on any hardware upgrade,
- there is a possibility that the action will take longer than expected.
- This PSN provides 1-800 dial in service for a large geographic area,
- in order to continue to provide this service, DISA will request ATT to
- reroute all 1-800 Offutt traffic to nodes 124 and 147 at Wright Patterson
- AFB. The rerouting will stay in effect until the TAC at PSN 105 is
- operational. Once the TAC is operational, it will take ATT about one
- hour to change the routing back to Offutt. We anticipate a maximum time
- of three days (9 Dec through 11 Dec 91) that this rerouting may be
- required. Due to the amount of usage of the Offutt dial ins, Wright
- Patterson will have considerably more busy signals. Please bear with us
- during the upgrade, we will re-establish normal service as quickly as
- possible.
-
- 2. States being affected are:
- Normally served by OFFUTT
- Texas
- Kansas
- Colorado
