Campus DNS, DHCP, and NTP Server Maintenance (Friday, August 12, 2022, 10 p.m.-2 a.m.)

Overview

On Friday, August 12, 2022, from 10 p.m.- 2 a.m., ITS will upgrade the campus DNS, DHCP, and NTP servers ns1.sfsu.edu (also known as ntp1.sfsu.edu, dhcp01.sfsu.edu, 130.212.10.214, 130.212.10.215) and ns2.sfsu.edu (also known as ntp2.sfsu.edu, dhcp02.sfsu.edu, 130.212.10.163, 130.212.10.164). This will result in faster and more secure DNS, DHCP, and NTP services.

To prepare for the maintenance, all campus DNS and DHCP change requests will be paused from August 11, 2022, at 9 a.m., until August 13, 2022, at 9 a.m.

What Can You Expect

End users may experience slower name resolution and IP address assignment during the maintenance period. Clients or applications that do not fail over to alternate DNS servers gracefully may need to be restarted.
