TRU IT Services will be performing a planned network firewall migration as part of an infrastructure upgrade.
What is happening
The existing firewall will be upgraded to a Palo Alto PA-5420 platform to enhance security, improve performance, and ensure long-term supportability.
When
Friday, April 17
11:00 PM – 6:00 AM
Impact
A brief disruption to internet and network connectivity may occur during the maintenance window. All services are expected to be fully restored immediately following the change.
This applies to all TRU locations, including the Kamloops campus and remote sites (Williams Lake, Lillooet, Clearwater, 100 Mile House, and Sahali Mall).
What you need to do
No action is required during the maintenance window.
IT Services will continue to monitor the environment closely after the migration. If you experience any issues following the maintenance window, please contact the TRU Service Desk.
Thank you for your understanding.

TRU is installing privacy-focused occupancy sensors in several campus buildings to better understand how classrooms, study spaces and service areas are used throughout the day.
The sensors help the university plan and schedule spaces more effectively. They do not record audio or video and cannot identify individuals. The technology only produces anonymous estimates of how busy a space is.
