SUBJECT:       Internet2 IP Network Core Node SALT Emergency Maintenance
AFFECTED:      Core Node SALT and Its Connectors, Participants, and Peers
START TIME:    Thursday, December 13, 2007, 4:50 AM (0450) UTC
END TIME:      Thursday, December 13, 2007, 5:20 AM (0520) UTC
DESCRIPTION:   Internet2 engineers will be performing a maintenance
                upgrade of the Internet2 IP backbone. Each router is
                expected to experience a 5 minute outage as the new
                software takes ownership and BGP sessions re-establish.
                Traffic will re-route around the routers as they are
                upgraded, but the IP network will experience an
                aggregate route instability during the upgrade window.
