Migration
We migrated our servers to our very own cabinet inside 1530 Swift!
Having our own cabinet required us to purchase some switches, so we picked up a few Arista switches: two 7050SX and one 7010T for OOB.
The migration went surprisingly well. We did some preparation before the server was moved, and when it was powered on, everything came back online.
Our connections to the exchanges haven’t been restored yet, as they’re still running the required cross-connects.
Router
The server we purchased to be our dedicated router arrived at the data center with the wrong NICs. TechMikeNY is sending us the correct ones. Once those are replaced, we will set it up and then schedule a time to move our core router from a VM to the dedicated machine.
Switches
This weekend at 7 a.m. EST, we will be upgrading the EOS version running on our switches. The network will be down for around 5 minutes for this maintenance.
