The Janet south west regional network was migrated to the new Janet 6 core on the 31st July. There was no disruption to service, or down time and the Janet South West regional network is now connected to the fastest National Research and Education Network in the world. This will give Janet the expandability to be able to meet user requirements for the next 10 years and beyond.
The SWERN user group meets 3 times a year and alternates the location for the meetings between Exeter and Bristol. The group has an active membership and meetings are well attended by representatives from FE, HE and other Janet connected sites in the region. The meetings usually start at 10.45am and stop at 1pm when lunch is provided. In the afternoon session which usually starts at 2pm, a presentation is normally given, either by a commercial supplier with a product of interest to the group or one of the community.
