AppleTalk Phase Out at Fermilab


Phase I

On October 4, 2001, AppleTalk Routing was contained within the individual workgroups throughout the lab. Although AppleTalk is present, AppleTalk Zones will not be routed outside a workgroup. AppleTalk users can only see their own AppleTalk Zone.

Phase II

On December 31st, 2001, AppleTalk will no longer be supported at the laboratory. All AppleTalk Routing will be removed from all router interfaces across the lab. Users will no longer be able to see any AppleTalk Zone.

As AppleTalk users migrate to other supported platforms, they will still only be able to see Apple Shares and Printers; however, these Shares and Printers will not be seen from other workgroups beside their own.
