Due to a short DDOS-attack the RU was virtually disconnected from the Internet during ca 7 minutes. All network connected systems may have had problems during that time. Until 15:30 some Eduroam users still had problems acquiring an IP address.

The router that regulates all IP traffic between subnets in the Huygens building and surrounding buildings, became too busy. All network traffic, especially UDP had problems. ISC network admins reduced the load by simplifying the ACLs and reducing logging. At about 12:00 the problem was temporarily solved. C&CZ will do a further inspection of all ACLs, with the aim to reduce the load on the router without reducing security for connected systems.

On the ISC website we read: Radboud University agreed on a new mobile telephone contract with - again - provider Vodafone. For this purpose, on Wednesday, September 24th during daytime the Radboud subscriptions will be adjusted. Employees with a Vodafone mobile wille have no disturbance in calling or being called that day. But the Vodafone data network might be temporarily unavailable. To restore the data connection it is necessary to turn the mobile phone off and then on again. Of course employees on campus can always use the eduroam Wi-Fi network.

The server that acts within FNWI as first DNS resolver crashed. This made the network virtually unusable for a lot of computers in FNWI. Only after a reboot of the server, the problem was solved. Measures to reduce the inconvenience of such a crash and to make such a crash less likely, have been partly taken and are partly in preparation.

A defective disk made the server stop serving web requests. A reboot fixed the problem. The defective disk will be replaced soon.

Due to an error during the planned maintenance by Surfnet of the RU network interface, the uplink of Radboud University to Surfnet was down.

One of the filesystems contained errors and prevented the system from starting up.

Both processor fans have failed and need to be replaced.

The fileserver had problems, which were resolved after a server reboot.

While administering the network switchports for the move of ISIS to Mercator1 floor 0 to 3, ISC network management erroneously also changed the configuration of the network switchports of floor 4. When this was reported this morning, it could be readily remedied.
