We will be upgrading the University’s network firewall infrastructure, including the systems supporting on-campus internet access, VPN connectivity, and Microsoft Azure services.

During the maintenance window, users may experience a very brief interruption to internet and Azure connectivity. Any disruption is expected to last only a few seconds.

This essential maintenance will apply important security updates and help ensure the University’s network remains secure, reliable, and fully supported.

Affected services should reconnect automatically. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while this work is carried out.
