Network problems affecting ResNet

ON Monday afternoon at 4.20pm we experienced a network outage of approximately 15 minutes. During this time all users of ResNet would have been unable to access any network services, including local services such as Blackboard. The problem affected large parts of the University network and not just ResNet.
The exact cause of this outage is not yet known, but some maintenance work was done first thing Tuesday morning to try and stop it happening again.
In the longer term, we are also working to re-engineer the links between ResNet and the rest of the University network so faults in one part of the network are less likely to affect us.
