You will also need to change the proxy settings either by GPO or you're going to have to script it. Depending on your setup you may need to visit some machines and do it manually (office/SLT computers spring to mind). Remember to remove it from any other software as well WSUS etc.

 

Also, if you USO Autoupdate, remove the proxy settings from that before you change over otherwise you have to search for it in the registry, have had to do that twice now!

 

Apart from changing the forwarders on the DNS servers, remember to change any machines that have static addresses as they usually point directly at the LGfL DNS servers instead of yours.

 

If you have a route between your networks on the LGfL1 network (ports opened), make sure you have asked Atomwide to have this set up on your LGfL2 connection otherwise you will find that your networks will no longer talk to each other.

 

Finally, I have found that where we have changed sites over with certain managed switches we have had to power cycle the switches to make it all spring to life. All to do with learned mac/address tables and you need to flush them.

 

I've done 7 so far and have another 3 to do in the run up to Christmas, only one has been a real PITA so far! Hope this has some extra pointers that they forget to tell you about!

Unfortunately I'm on long to sick so can't look it up for you, but just search the registry for Atomwide and you should find it no problem.
