• All other systems requiring network connectivity on the Puget Sound campus such as physical phones and printers will be unavailable.

• GlobalProtect VPN will be unavailable. 

• Inbound and outbound internet access (WiFi and Ethernet) will be unavailable during the maintenance window. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

• Access to Canvas, email, Google Workspace, the university website (pugetsound.edu), and Zoom phone app will not be affected.
