Problem: igmp boradcast repair Cause: Cedar Avenue service center heat issue earlier this month Affects: Potential brief outages for Case Internet users Started: 03/12/2010 12:01 AM Resolved: 03/12/2010 04:01 AM
Notes:
Switch firewall cluster to use multicast instead of broadcast to keep firewall nodes and connections in sync. This will improve firewall and switch efficiency, and reduce the amount of traffic on the switch.
This can possibly result in intermittent Internet access problems or a complete Internet outage of up to one hour (the time it will take to restore the cluster). No outage is expected, but we are reserving the entire maintenance period.
