Issued 8:50 AM 11/12/2023
Next update - at end of event, or as needed

There will be some brief disruptions to network connectivity at the RATS repeater site this morning for network maintenance.  This will result in intermittent loss of connectivity on the following systems:
  • DMRVA and WIRES-X network access - these repeaters will continue to operate normally for local traffic
  • AREDN Winlink RMS Relay
  • AREDN network time services (NTP)
  • AREDN network tunnel services - RF access will remain operational
  • Tech Committee VPN access
No ETR is available at this time.

Issues resolved with repeater site visit and cable modem restart.

The Comcast cable modem was power-cycled to resolve a DHCP lease issue preventing proper IP address issuance and renewals.  All systems are now online and functioning normally.
