What is happening?
On Monday, July 27, 2026, from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM, ITS will perform critical data center fiber maintenance. This work will cause a disruption to all campus network services.
Nearly all Carleton systems on the Wired and WiFi network on campus will be unavailable. These systems include but are not limited to Moodle, campus printing, VPN, VoIP desk phones, and files or applications hosted on campus network drives. We expect downtime to be around 2 hours.
Community members accessing cloud services from off-campus (or via cell service) will not be affected if logged in prior to the maintenance window.
We appreciate your patience as we perform this maintenance, which is an important piece of improving network reliability.
What do you need to do?
Plan not to use Carleton technology and systems from 7AM until 9AM on July 27 unless working remotely and logged in to applications prior to 7am. We will communicate completion of the work and/or any changes from this schedule on this blog post.
What if you have problems after systems are back?
If you have network or service connectivity issues after these updates, please contact the ITS Helpdesk by calling 507-222-5999.
