The Scoop

Friday morning, between 6:00 -7:00 AM, CMS will add two new subnets to our current Bird library computer network. This will give us about 500 more network addresses. For the past a few years, we have increased our computer devices significantly and we are almost running out our capacity. This change will take care of this issue for a long time. We don't expect any difference for staff and public workstations because the rebooting will adjust the network settings. The settings on computer servers will need to be adjusted by the system administrators. Most system level work will take place late night on Thursday or early Friday. This change only affects the Bird library network. Sci-tech branches are on different networks. If you experience anything unusual, please report to x4300. Thanks!
