Engineering Switch Upgrade Program Continues
Ongoing. There still are a couple of old Cisco and Extreme
switches to
upgrade
across
Engineering.
A number of departments within Engineering are still hard coding IP numbers. Engineering is starting to migrate these groups to use DHCP. This will require physically or remotely visiting each affected machine. Everyone that has moved over to E5 is now using DHCP. Plans are to move EIT and ERC over by Christmas. Time line for all Engineering 2011.
E5 Networking
All networking has been completed except wireless which is being installed now. Systems Design and Mechanical are moved in. Electrical has started moving over but will take about a year to fill their two floors.
To assist IST and to make TR access more accessible/secure within Engineering, especially shared TR's, Engineering is looking at standardizing the TR lockset.
