Dynect Traffic Management Interface Upgrade
Fri, 18 Sep 2009 1507 UTCDuring our regular maintenance window on Tuesday Sept 22, 2009 (0900 UTC) we will be releasing an updated version of our Traffic Management user interface which makes a change in the ruleset definition interface.
We will be replacing the ruleset definitions from location specific to regional definitions. The new user interface will display the following regions.
- US East (combines Newark and Ashburn rulesets)
- US Central
- US West
- Asia
- EU West
- EU Central
- EU East
What does this mean to you? If you have defined your Traffic Management Service with just a single Global Ruleset you will see no changes in the way the current service works.
For the regional location which will be combining two existing city locations the results will be that those rules will be combined into a single ruleset. If both cities have matching rulesets you will not notice any change in the way DNS is handled.
This modification to the Global ruleset definitions will provide you with easier ruleset definitions as we add more individual locations to our network.
