Administration Building to Get its Own Network Sept. 30

Stony Brook University's Administration Building

In order to improve network connectivity in the Administration Building, the Division of Information Technology (DoIT) will be creating a separate, isolated network exclusively for Internet traffic for the Admin Building, which will mitigate outages and service disruptions caused by problems in other buildings connected to the main campus network. It will also provide an extra layer of security and protection. The cutover will happen on Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2014, at 4 a.m.  There should be no service disruption and no other buildings should be affected by the cutover.

Client Support staff members will be on site in the Administration Building the morning of Sept. 30 to monitor the situation. If you notice an inability for certain devices (computers, cameras, printers) to access the new network, or if you have trouble accessing certain applications in the days, weeks, or months following the cutover, please call 2-9800 to report issues. Thank you.
