size=2>Colleagues,<BR><BR>We have successfully migrated a test PC <SPAN
class=410231309-23012007>to the new network </SPAN>at Sheffield South
CLC <SPAN class=410231309-23012007>on Monday</SPAN>. We propose to move the
rest of the 6 pilot schools <SPAN class=410231309-23012007>as soon as
possible, hopefully </SPAN>on Tuesday afternoon (23 January), and if this all
goes well, we will move the first phase of 60 schools on Friday of this week.
Subject to successful completion of each phase, the next phase will follow at
the end of the following week. Therefore, the planned dates will
be:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=ARIAL size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=ARIAL size=2>Phase 1: 26/1/07</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=ARIAL size=2>Phase 2: 2/2/07</FONT></DIV>

However, we do emphasise that you need to have your network correctly configured
according to the current BT settings. In particular, smtp and proxy servers need
to be identified by name, rather than by ip address. This is critical to
successful migration.<BR><BR><STRONG>FILTERING</STRONG><BR>The way in which
content filtering takes place will change in the new network. Currently your
filtering schema depends on which proxy server your browsers are pointing at,
and there are three in Sheffield currently:<BR><BR>- proxy.bty-h.org.uk -
general secondary school filtering, requiring a username and password to be
entered<BR>- shefproxy.bty-h.org.uk - as above, but not requiring a
username/password<BR>- primaryproxy.bty-h.org.uk - a primary school oriented
filtering schema - no username/password required.<BR><BR>Under the new system,
which is described at:<BR></FONT><A

face=ARIAL size=2>Schools will be allocated a filtering schema appropriate to
their type of school, identified by means of their ip address range. Wider
access can be gained (for example for staff in a primary school) through a login
page, at </FONT><A href="blocked::http://login.yhgfl.net/"><FONT face=ARIAL
size=2>http://login.yhgfl.net</FONT></A><FONT face=ARIAL size=2> . More details
of how to login this way will be issued at a later date.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=410231309-23012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>Once a school is
migrated, we can then start to log change requests for additional services, for
example reverse proxy and VPN. I will provide details of the process and
information required later this week.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
