SCS IP Reallocation Project

SCS Computing Facilities is in the process of reallocating our IP address space. The purpose of this reallocation is to prepare the appropriate IP address space for SCS computers that will be located within the new Gates Technology Center. This reallocation will also allow us to use the features of IP routing more effectively within SCS.

The reallocation of IP addresses will mean that many computers within SCS will have their IP addresses renumbered. The renumbering of IP addresses will be done in small blocks over the next two years. Users will be contacted prior to their IP address being changed. The new IP address assignments will be based on the physical location of the computer.

For more details on this process please see the following web page: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~help/networking/ip-reallocation.html

Please contact the SCS Help Desk at x8-4231 or send mail to help+@cs.cmu.edu with any questions or concerns regarding this process.

Thank you for your attention,
