Specific instructions for Savannah sysadmins are being sent to savannah-hackers-private
Our network provider TowardEX generously donated our bandwidth and IP addresses for many years and now we have a new donor: Hurricane Electric. This change requires replacing our main IP ranges: 208.118.235.0/24 and 2001:4830:134::/48. If you have hardcoded the IP address of any GNU/FSF servers in those ranges in any code or configuration files, they will need to be updated. If you refer to our servers by their DNS name, such as "gnu.org", then that will continue to work. You should use the DNS name wherever possible. There is a chance this change may temporarily cause some of the email we send to change its spam score. If you receive email from our servers, please check your spam email box and if you see any email from us there, please mark it as not spam so that your email provider will not see it as spam in the future. When? Most IP addresses will change on December 20-21. For machines where the IP change requires coordination with parties outside the FSF, such as volunteer administered machines, the old and new addresses will work simultaneously until January 7th, when the old IP may be removed at any time. If you think we might need to coordinate with you and we haven't contacted you yet, please email sysad...@gnu.org. We expect all machines to keep the last number of their IPv4 address and the last 80 bits of their IPv6 address. On IPv4, we are changing from 208.118.235.0/24 to 209.51.188.0/24 And for IPv6, from 2001:4830:134::/48 to 2001:470:142::/48 So, for example fsf.org will change from 208.118.235.174 to 209.51.188.174 and from 2001:4830:134:4::a to 2001:470:142:4::a With your help we can make this migration uneventful! -- Ian Kelling | Senior Systems Administrator, Free Software Foundation GPG Key: B125 F60B 7B28 7FF6 A2B7 DF8F 170A F0E2 9542 95DF https://fsf.org | https://gnu.org
