[e-Deployathon 2024] | Few hours left to apply
by Willy Manga 04 Nov '24

04 Nov '24

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

RSS Feeds
by Lionel Whitecross 23 Oct '24

23 Oct '24

Hi Everyone Quick question. Im sure the wheel has already been invented, however let me throw it out there anyway I need someway to generate RSS feeds or network status direct from Vumatel / openserve / metro etc feeds and bring into our site so clients can see if something is down in the area I was going to use FreshRSS unless there is an easier way to do this and also which feeds should I import directly from. I know rocketnet are doing similar so well done to them, maybe they can share what they are doing. Im trying to reduce the amount of tickets and call in clients when their fibre goes offline, so I want them to first check if their area is affected or not. Any ideas would be highly appreciated Kind Regards [A blue and red text on a black background Description automatically generated] Easyweb Internet (Pty) Ltd * + 27 10 001 5200 | +27 82 553 2203 Lionel Whitecross Managing Director * lionel(a)easyweb.co.za<mailto:lionel@easyweb.co.za> * https://www.easyweb.co.za<https://www.easyweb.co.za/> * 137 Hennie Alberts, Brackenhurst, Alberton Please leave a review on our Google page<https://g.page/r/CT0rITwxu__EEAI/review> [cid:image002.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://www.facebook.com/easywebinternet/>[cid:image003.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/easyweb-internet-pty-ltd/>[cid:image004.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://www.instagram.com/easyweb_internet/>[cid:image005.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg6a48ffrc-es8IHbHlwPLA/featured?disable_p…>[cid:image006.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://twitter.com/easyweb_za>[cid:image007.png@01DB256A.6C0DDAD0]<https://bni.co.za/en-ZA/memberdetails?encryptedMemberId=DA3%2FjyS%2F%2Bj%2F…> _DISCLAIMER_ The information contained in this communication is confidential and may be legally privileged.

22 Oct '24

(Apologies for cross-posting) Dear Colleagues, Registration is still open for the “Navigating the ICP-2 Review Process" Webinar. The session will be moderated by Mrs. Madhvi Gokool, the Senior IP Resources Specialist at AFRINIC. With her on the panel will be: * Mr. Hervé Clément, ASO-AC Chair * Mr. Kevin Blumberg, ASO-AC Member ________________________________ * Date: 23rd October 2024 * Time: 13:00 UTC * Duration: 1:30 Hrs * Type: Presentation and Discussion * Registration link<https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/4417282824528/WN_PJ36dxE8Qo28-lAdK…> ________________________________ The Internet Coordination Policy 2 (ICP-2) outlines the fundamental principles and criteria ICANN uses when assessing applications for establishing new Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). Originally accepted in June 2001 (read more on the ten fundamental principles<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/new-rirs-criteria-2012-02-25-en>), ICP-2 has provided crucial guidelines for maintaining the accountability and effectiveness of the RIR system. In October 2023, the NRO EC tasked the ASO AC with two major initiatives to strengthen the RIR framework: 1. ICP-2 Implementation Procedures: Assisting the NRO EC in drafting procedures for validating and monitoring ongoing RIR compliance with ICP-2. 2. Strengthening ICP-2: Managing the process to update ICP-2 in 2024/2025 to provide a more robust accountability mechanism for the RIR system. This webinar will shed light on the ICP-2 review mechanism, the potential outcomes, and, most importantly, the role that the Internet Community can play in shaping its direction. Key Takeaways: * Understand how the ICP-2 review process can enhance the stability and accountability of the RIR ecosystem. * Learn how to participate in the review process through a community-driven survey<https://ripe-ncc.typeform.com/icp-2> that was launched by the NRO<https://www.nro.net/the-nro-invites-internet-community-to-participate-in-ic…> and seeks feedback on proposed revisions to ICP-2 from 8 October to 19 November 2024. ________________________________ Who Should Attend: This webinar is ideal for: * Community Stakeholders * AFRINIC Members * Internet Governance Professionals Secure your spot and register.<https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/4417282824528/WN_PJ36dxE8Qo28-lAdK…> Be sure to save the date and spread the word as your participation is key to making these sessions a success! ________________________________ Explore and recap the full schedule and learn more about each webinar both previous and upcoming on our Webinar Series Page<https://afrinic.net/events/webinar-series>.
