This morning at 9:54 a.m., the University of Nebraska Network Engineering team received an alert indicating an issue with the Lincoln Network Nebraska router. After reviewing the available diagnostic information, engineers identified the affected card and took it offline at 10:00:01 a.m. The card was then brought back online at 10:00:41 a.m. to allow it to reinitialize. Following that process, all services were fully restored by 10:09 a.m. We have opened a case with the vendor to further investigate the cause of the issue and will continue to closely monitor the situation.
