[Transparency Report #011][Documentation] Bringing our Status Pages Back

What are Transparency Reports?
As a community‑operated and governed virtual internet exchange, FurrIX maintains
a commitment to open and honest communication with its members. From time to
time, operational work may occur that affects the exchange or its supporting infrastructure.
When this happens, the FurrIX operations team publishes a transparency report to
ensure all members remain informed. As a hobbyist‑rooted vIX, we aim to keep
communication clear, accessible and practical to the best of our ability.

What is happening?
Our volunteers have been working the past few days on getting our status pages back
online so that our members can keep an eye on the exchange and get a heads up if
a service, router or endpoint goes down. This is being done as part of our transparency
towards the members that make up and run our exchange with us. While you won’t get
hard numbers from the Status Bot, it will give you a basic idea of the exchange’s health.

Changes to the exchange:
- status.furrix.zone has been brought back online
- addresses and checks have been updated to the new /44
- alerting rules will forward problems to our internal discord

Are exchange operations affected?
Nothing inside the exchange has been modified, this work is just bolt on monitoring for
peace of mind and is an augment to our upcoming LibreNMS deployment.
