Firewall #00 Scheduled intervention : Firewall migration (phase 3)

Estimated timeframe : 23:00-08:00

Actual timeframe : 23:08-06:35

Objective

Replace the current aging firewall with a modernized architecture

Operations

  • apply rules
  • test packet filters
  • test NAT

Impact

  • no or heavily interrupted network traffic between Intranet/DMZ/Internet
  • IRC servers will not or only very intermittently be reachable

Mitigation

  • Do not rely on any IRC services (storage, mail, web, print, ...)
  • Consult this page for status updates

06:35 Final configuration & testing finished ; the new firewall is live.

05:59 This is starting to get into shape.

23:08 configuration & testing started
Firewall #00 Scheduled intervention : Firewall restart

Estimated timeframe : 14:30-14:35

Actual timeframe : 14:41-14:45

Objective

We are observing network spikes and delays on the departmental firewall traffic, resulting in detoriated networking services. Restarting the firewall will clear the IRQ queue, and ameliorate networking services.

Actions

  • restart firewall

Impact

  • During the restart, most networked services will not be available.
