[MIXP Announcement] MIXP now also on PeeringDB

by MIXP announcements

Dear Colleagues, peers, Please also note that MIXP now has an entry on PeeringDB. https://www.peeringdb.com/ix/1508 What is PeeringDB? (From the front-page at https://www.peeringdb.com): "PeeringDB facilitates the exchange of information related to Peering. Specifically, we are a database of networks that are peering, where they are peering, and if they are likely to peer with you.” What does this mean for you? Simply, that all participants now and in future at the MIXP can make use of PeeringDB to store and share details. Enjoy! Best, Daniel

[MIXP Announcement] First ever MIXP meet-up (at AFRINIC-25)

by MIXP announcements

Dear Colleagues and Peers, We're in the process of organising an MIXP meet-up to co-incide with the AFRINC-25 meeting event! This mini-event will include: - A small number of more formal presentations, mostly technical in nature, related to IXP operations. (Watch this space for possible international guest speakers from the IXP community). - Peering personals for MIXP member peers (a little more info below). - Some social fun involving a quiz, some beer and meeting your peers personally to build peering relationships. The date and venue for this will be Novemer 25, 2016 at the Sofitel Mauritius L'Impérial Resport (AFRINIC-25 venue), in the afternoon. The final agenda of presentations is still a work in progress, but is planned to be around three or so presentations of around 15 minutes each. That, together with the peering personals, will add up around one hour of "formalities". What are "peering personals"? - An opportunity for peering partners to introduce themselves to other peers in person, say a few words about their networks, and why they would be attractive peering partners. To allow us to make sure we can have eough beer to go around and to invite some (we hope) interesting speakers, we need to guage the interest and possible attendance. So if you'd like to attend this get-together, please conact meet-up(a)mixp.org (off list) before the end of this week. Note that although this is not a closed event, there are limits to the space we'll have. So once confirmed, there will be a further deadline to confirm attendenance after which you should not expect to get a seat (or beer!) In addition this will be very IXP focused, with a particular focus on the MIXP, although there will be other IXP operators, present as well. Once again, if interested, please get in touch with meet-up(a)mixp.org today or tomorrow (November 4) to be included. Yours in peering, Daniel (for the MIXP technical volunteers).
