Dear all,
AfriNIC just concluded a series of training workshops in Gambia, Sierra Leone and Liberia in June 2010. During these workshops, more than eighty (80) network engineers learnt the following amongst other things: - The policy development process, why it is important and how to take part in it. - The need for a new Internet protocol (IPv6). - How to configure Windows and Linux clients to use IPv6 - How to build routed IPv6 networks. We wish to extend our appreciation to the following organisations for partnering with us to make these workshops a reality: 1. The Public Utilities Regulatory Agency (PURA) for the workshop Serrekunda - The Gambia. 2. AfCOM Sierra Leone and the Sierra Leone Chapter of ISOC for the workshop in Freetown - Sierra Leone. 3. The Liberian Chapter of ISOC for the workshop in Monrovia - Liberia. In Sierra Leone we collaborated with ISOC on to run both the IPv6 workshops and IXP training that culminated in the setting up and launch of the Sierra Leone Internet Exchange on the 25th of June 2010. Warm regards. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Mukom Akong T. www.afrinic.net | p: +230 466 6616 | f: +230 466 6758 | Skype: perfexcellent _______________________________________________ announce mailing list [email protected] https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/announce
