Due to the current high load and number of connections the university’s existing firewalls cannot cope as well as usual with the current amount of traffic.

We have already received the new cluster of 10Gig Fortigate firewalls and are in the process of it’s implementation and the expected date of completion will be in two weeks’ time. At the same time IT will also be upgrading the 250 Meg total bandwidth and 145 Meg international bandwidth as soon as the new firewalls are in production.
