Engineering Switch Upgrade Program Continues 

Ongoing. Still have 15 old Cisco switches to upgrade across Engineering.


EIT Network drops


About 20 drops left to do on 4th floor. Over the years, unknown to us, users have been installing hubs in EIT. This is being rectified with a request by Electrical Engineering  to install 102 drops throughout EIT, with about 12 new ones in DC. MAC address lockdown will be enforced to reduce this problem in the future.

VLAN 16 Cleanup


Done.

DHCP Project

 

A number of departments within Engineering are still hard coding IP numbers. A project has been put forward to migrate these groups to use DHCP. This will require physically or remotely visiting each affected machine. Timeline for completeion, end of 2009. 

Aruba switchover Project

Architecture has been switched over to Aruba. EIT is next and should be finished by the end of this week. The three remaining Engineering buildings should be finished over the next couple of weeks
