To fix security vulnerabilities, the load balancer software must be updated. The systems are designed to be redundant so that there are no prolonged service outages. Switchovers may cause multiple interruptions to active connections and brief (<30 sec.) periods of unavailability. A new connection should usually be established automatically.

Affected services on the load balancer:

ADFS
Campus4U
Datashare
Databases (Mailrelay, Network Access/Dyport)
Email/Exchange/OWA
IDP (TU Dresden, Saxony)
Intranet
LDAP
