Legacy Infoblox DNS Shutdown
On Tuesday, Oct. 11, at 9:00 a.m. the VUMC IT Linux Team will implement approved Change 73066. The Medical Center’s legacy DNS servers are no longer supported and will be shut down by the Linux team. The legacy servers are 160.129.6.22, 160.129.233.40, and 160.129.48.90. Any legacy systems that have not yet been moved over to the new servers should plan to move immediately.
Medical Center devices currently configured to resolve against:
- 160.129.6.22
- 160.129.233.40
- 160.129.48.90
Must be reconfigured to resolve against:
- 10.108.51.18
- 10.150.51.18
- The new DNS infrastructure is already in place. Everything has been updated to reflect the new server structure.
- The shutdown should not cause downtime for any core critical applications.
- The technical team has taken steps over the last few weeks to ensure that departments are no longer using the old infrastructure, including communication to let departments know about the changes.
DNS is a protocol standard that contains different types of messages for computers to process and exchange data on the Internet, and resides on many private networks. This protocol standard is how our systems know how to reach and communicate with other computers and systems.
