2. Customer services and applications should remain unaffected and will continue to be served from other Regional Edges within the same region.
3. The tunnel from the Customer Edge (CE) to the Regional Edge (RE) will be unavailable, resulting in delays in propagating user configurations. However, the secondary tunnel will remain operational

Rest assured, Customer Edge (CE) services and applications will not experience any downtime during this maintenance window.
