On Tuesday 15 December and Wednesday 16 December, the Firmware on Meraki MX450 Routers (Fire and Emergency New Zealand’s Meraki Hubs/Concentrators at Popes Road Takanini and Alexander Road Trentham Datacentres) will be updated respectively at 2 am.

This may cause be a momentary network outage/blip for all PRT Template sites as they switch over to the ART Hub when the firmware is being updated, and vice versa, when ART Hub is updated the following morning.

  • The outage will briefly impact network connections to Fire and Emergency sites, including internet and WiFi.  
  • Although this change will not affect NHQ, NTC or Region offices.
  • There is no requirement for users to do anything prior to, or following the update.
