This blog post is an expansion on the previous post about Tawny OWL <\/a>to give timescales.<\/p>\n

The upgrade of the FroDos to re-route OWL traffic from the current system to the new one (called Tawny) is roughly a two stage process:<\/p>\n

1) Configure the Frodo to set up the relevant VLANs and L3VPNs.
\n2) Associate the existing OWL ports with the new VLAN.<\/p>\n

Step one can happen without any effect on existing traffic and we will be doing that on all FroDos before we move onto step 2.<\/p>\n

Step 2 will be done in batches to aid us in testing successful migration testing. Also, note that if you are a COWLS customer, we will be applying the change to your FroDos just for completeness. Nothing will change with respect to existing connectivity.<\/p>\n

The listing goes as follows:<\/p>\n

First batch<\/h2>\n

To be scheduled for morning 3rd March 2020<\/p>\n
