DYNES-Deployments

[Jason Zurawski <>]

Hey Dale/All;

Per the note that David Ripley sent out a couple of weeks back, the 
transition of Internet2 ION to OSCARS 6 was completed last week.  We are 
still in the process of converting the directly peered DYNES sites 
(regionals, and a handful of campuses) over to 6, and after that we will move 
on to the indirectly peered ones such as yours (since you are behind MREN).  
The goal is to get everyone onto 6 before project end.  

David or Ty can comment on the status and the process, but I believe you will 
get a note stating the problem, the fix, and suggesting a maintenance window 
to do so.  

Thanks;

-jason
