Toughbooktalk is getting a new switch!

Toughbook gurus,

The switch that is running the site now is pushing 10 years and while it still works, I don't feel comfortable with it running everything any more.

I have upgraded to a new managed switch! It is in the mail and is expected in the week of 6/17. I will do this overnight so no one should miss a beat!

The upgrade should also help with site performance. But most importantly it will help with routing the excessive traffic needed to back everything up to the SAN.

Thanks!

This switch is going in tonight after 11PM Central time.

The downtime should be minimal!

Thanks!
