I have misquoted the new IP address.

Here are the correct details:

The address IP address of A29RT2 (29.2) is changing at around 11:00 GMT today from 82.70.71.174 to 82.71.111.30. DNS updates to geat.pitbulluk.org will no doubt propagate at their own pace.

I have been assured that our IPv6 prefix (for what it’s worth) isn’t changing.

Please update your multinet ‘connects’, any IP restrictions on your multinet ‘listens’ and the far ends of your DDCMP over TCP or UDP connections accordingly, assuming pydecnet.

Hi,

Sorry for the incredibly short notice and the wide distribution – this wasn’t supposed to happen at all.
