A network switch providing connections in the north east corner of the first floor failed shortly after 04:00 this morning (2010-10-21). It is one of two switches in the wiring closet so some machines and telephones in the area would have lost all connectivity whilst others were working normally.
The dead switch was replaced by a spare at about 09:24 and there is no reason to expect further problems.
