[Ncep.list.idp.mrms.users] MRMS Users notification: Firewall and LDM updates for MRMS customers

[Derek VanPelt - NOAA Affiliate]

MRMS Customers,

NCEP Central Operations (NCO) has set up a mirror facility in Boulder, CO,
for the Integrated Dissemination Program.  This facility in Boulder will be
running the same IDP applications as the current NCO facility in College
Park, MD, including the Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor (MRMS) application
developed by NSSL.

We are requesting all NCO MRMS users to update their firewall rules to
allow LDM connections to both College Park and the new Boulder distribution
server:

Your firewall should accept both:

   - CURRENT MRMS LDM server: 140.90.98.15 (*mrms-ldmout.cprk.ncep.noaa.go*
   *v*)
   - NEW Boulder MRMS LDM server: 140.172.138.50
   *(mrms-ldmout.bldr.ncep.noaa.go**v*)

Additionally, your LDM configuration should request from LDM server
*mrms-ldmout.ncep.noaa.gov
<http://mrms-ldmout.ncep.noaa.gov>*.

Once the firewall rules are updated and the LDM request line is
changed to *mrms-ldmout.ncep.noaa.gov
<http://mrms-ldmout.ncep.noaa.gov> *no further changes should be required
on your side.

There will be scheduled fail-overs where there is a DNS change to make one
of the two sites active. This fail-over should be transparent to the
customer.


Please contact us if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Derek
