[e-Deployathon 2024] | Few hours left to apply

Greetings from AFRINIC, AFRINIC is one of two RIRs with IPv4 addresses in its available pool—1,015,552 million, to be specific. Of course, this is grossly inadequate to meet Africa’s current IP address needs, making IPv6 the only sustainable way to continue to grow the Internet's potential in Africa. That’s why, in 2018, after having trained over 6,000 engineers from 50 countries, we designed and organised the world’s first Deployathon to shorten the time between learning about IPv6 and actually implementing it. In 2020, we redesigned the event and organised it entirely online. Nevertheless, 40 organisations from 20 countries were able to accomplish 75 deployment KPIs: 23 validated route6 object 19 validated RPKI ROA objects 13 address plans in IPAMS 11 advertised IPv6 prefixes 3 IPv6-enabled DNS 2 IPv6 traffic from test VLAN 1 DNSSEC IPv6 signed IPv6 reverse zone 1 IPv6-enabled website 1 IPv6-enabled email 1 network with IPv6 user traffic If selected, you will get the same step by step guidance, tools and techniques we’ve perfected in 9 (e-)Deployathons and +500 helpdesk calls to help you move your IPv6 deployment one clearly measurable step forward in full accordance with your network change management processes. Date: 12 November 2024 to 14 November 2024 Time: 4 hours each day Location: Zoom (but we promise it will be fun 😂) Eligibility: Qualified engineers from any country in Africa If you are an engineer who runs a network and believes that you can make one concrete visible step towards IPv6 deployment (or advance your stalled IPv6 deployment). Click here [1] to apply for a spot (Only 35 spots available) Deadline for application: *Today* 4 November 2024. For more information and queries about e-Deployathons, please contact: do(a)afrinic.net 1. https://learn.afrinic.academy/edeployathon/ Sincerely, -- Willy MANGA Deployment Ops Engineer AFRINIC t: +230 403 51 00 | f: +230 466 6758 | tt: @afrinic | w: www.afrinic.net
