Redirecting all requests to a single page

[eluser]ericbae[/eluser]
Hello,

I have a website and I need to make the website unavailable for a few hours while performing maintenance.

Is there a simple way to redirect ALL requests to a single page (e.g a page that says "we are performing maintenance")?

Thanks for your help in advance!
