This maintenance is being performed by our data centre's fibre infrastructure provider to accommodate municipal construction activities in the surrounding area. Scheduled Maintenance Windows Monday, November 2, 2026 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM EST Tuesday, November 3, 2026 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM EST Wednesday, November 4, 2026 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM EST Potential Service Impact IXICA's primary eastern network infrastructure is not affected by this maintenance and is expected to remain operational throughout the scheduled maintenance windows. While widespread service interruptions are not anticipated, due to the complexity of our network infrastructure and the interdependencies between network locations, some customers may experience intermittent call failures, unsuccessful call attempts, or brief disruptions to active calls during the maintenance periods. These impacts, if encountered, are expected to be temporary and limited to services or call paths that rely on the affected infrastructure. IXICA's Network Operations Centre will actively monitor network operations throughout the maintenance windows and coordinate with our infrastructure providers to address any service-related issues. Customer Action Required No action is required at this time. This advisory is being provided as a precaution to ensure customers are aware of the potential for intermittent service disruptions.

The maintenance involves a network service migration that will temporarily interrupt connectivity with the affected upstream provider. Maintenance Details Date: Tuesday, November 10, 2026 Start Time: 12:01 AM Eastern Time (EST) End Time: 6:00 AM Eastern Time (EST) Expected Upstream Interruption: Approximately 60 minutes Affected Geographic Areas This maintenance may impact a subset of inbound and outbound calls associated with the following provinces: -Manitoba -Ontario -Quebec -Nova Scotia Not all calls within these provinces will be affected. The potential impact is limited to call traffic that would normally traverse the affected upstream provider. Potential Service Impact IXICA maintains redundant upstream carrier connectivity to support service continuity during planned maintenance and unexpected network disruptions. During this maintenance, the affected upstream provider is expected to experience approximately 60 minutes of service interruption. IXICA's alternate carriers will remain available to handle call traffic during this period. However, brief service disruptions may occur as network routing converges and traffic transitions to alternate carriers. During these transitions: -Some active calls may be unexpectedly disconnected. -New inbound or outbound call attempts may temporarily fail. -Brief call routing interruptions may occur during the initial failover or subsequent restoration of the affected upstream connection. Once routing convergence is complete, affected call traffic is expected to continue through IXICA's redundant carrier infrastructure. Network Monitoring IXICA's Network Operations team will monitor network connectivity and call routing throughout the maintenance window to minimize potential customer impact. Although our redundant infrastructure is designed to maintain service availability, we cannot guarantee completely uninterrupted calling during the transition periods. No action is required from customers. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience this scheduled maintenance may cause.

Additionally, some DNS records may not properly respect the TTL on our domain records. As a result, your phone system may continue attempting to register with our primary network, which will be temporarily unavailable during maintenance. In some cases, DNS records may not update promptly when we switch back to the primary network. We recommend monitoring your phone system and, if necessary, using the corresponding IP address as a temporary solution until your DNS record updates.

Service Outage Notice – Windsor Region https://status.ixica.com/incident/912182 Wed, 03 Jun 2026 13:00:00 -0000 https://status.ixica.com/incident/912182#e57ca2b39cc1b86efd54cb6f3dd7d202302f808908cca2fc1149fe451360fb98 Incident UPDATE: Per the ILEC this issue has been resolved. UPDATE: We have received an update from our local ILEC. According to our ILEC Escalation Support, the major outage has been attributed to a cable cut in conjunction with a faulty hardware ring. Their network team is currently working on a network redesign, which involves moving all affected circuits to a new configuration as part of the restoration efforts. At this time, the ETR remains unknown. However, this has been classified as a high priority issue, and the ILEC team is actively working to restore services as quickly as possible. We will continue to provide updates as additional information becomes available. A major outage has been reported in the Windsor region, affecting multiple carriers, including IXICA. However, thanks to IXICA's multi-layered network architecture and built-in redundancies, not all numbers in the area are impacted. The local ILEC has confirmed the outage, and teams are actively working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Maintenance: Service Impacting: Maintenance & Network Change Notice - [13 May 2026 - 03:00 to 05:00 ET/UTC-4 (3 AM - 5 AM ET/UTC-4)] https://status.ixica.com/maintenance/887276 Mon, 04 May 2026 19:38:43 -0000 https://status.ixica.com/incident/887276#875fcf01915db1e7853ac039f64324d6a1fa8e892783fdf8da4d29ef4dd5f28e Maintenance As part of IXICAs on-going efforts to provide our customers and their end users access to a resilient telecom network; we are making some changes to our SIP network. Part of the work involved requires a software update to our public facing session border controller (SBC) cluster. Details of Changes: Beginning May 13, 2026 [03:00 ET/UTC-4] [3 AM ET/UTC-4] IXICA will initiate the software update working alongside engineers from our SBC vendor. During this time our geo-redundant backup SBC will be enabled to act as the primary SBC. Our DNS record sbc1.ixica.com will be repointed to the backup IP address 3.98.134.199. Primary Signalling IP being updated: 169.55.63.65 Back-up Signalling IP taking the role of primary: 3.98.134.199 Media: Can originate from anywhere Please ensure your switches and firewalls are configured to accept/send traffic as indicated above. If you are using our domain record sbc1.ixica.com and are accepting/sending traffic to/from both IPs above, no action is required on your part. Please take note that any in-flight calls will be dropped at the start of the maintenance routine. Any calls that start on the backup network will remain active until they gracefully end. The software update is expected to last ~30 minutes. Our maintenance window is 3:00 to 05:00 ET/UTC-4 (3 AM - 5 AM ET/UTC-4) Upon completion of the update and validation, the primary network will be enabled again and our domain record for sbc1.ixica.com will be pointed back to 169.55.63.65. What to do if you encounter issues: We have carefully planned this change (taking into account all potential scenarios that could cause issues) to ensure a smooth and seamless transition. If you experience any issues, please contact us with as much detail as possible, including an example of a failed call if applicable. Our technical support team is available via email at support@ixica.com. IMPORTANT Following previous network maintenance routines, we have observed that some customer phone systems did not automatically reconnect. If you experience any issues, please refresh your PBX registration to sbc1.ixica.com by either forcing a re-registration or rebooting your phone system. Additionally, some DNS records may not properly respect the TTL on our domain records. As a result, your phone system may continue attempting to register with our primary network, which will be temporarily unavailable during maintenance. In some cases, DNS records may not update promptly when we switch back to the primary network. We recommend monitoring your phone system and, if necessary, using the corresponding IP address as a temporary solution until your DNS record updates. Please inform your end users of this maintenance window as it will affect all voice calls during the maintenance window including 911 calls. If you have any questions or comments regarding this migration please feel free to contact us via our support desk email address. Our telephone call centre team is not specialized in this migration and may not have all details. Thank you for your business and continued trust in IXICA for your Telecom needs
