Legacy DNS Services on Passage Server to Be Retired Feb. 21

IT Services will perform planned maintenance from 8 to 9 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 21, to retire DNS services on the legacy server Passage (130.184.7.103). Following the maintenance, the server will no longer respond to DNS queries.

In preparation, some advanced users will be required to change the configuration of their devices. IT Services recommends all devices use DHCP so that changes are applied automatically. Users with manually configured devices must update their settings with the preferred DNS servers.
