Getting down to business

Mathieu Paonessa from Jaguar Network expresses his satisfaction with the discussions relating to Operators in Africa. "The three panels were very interesting ... they discussed very pertinent issues ," he said.

The Africa Operators Day discussed numerous issues relating to IPV6 launch, and interconnections in the continent. Issues of national and regional peering were also discussed.

Peering connections

The Peering panel explored challenges experienced when setting up ISPs in many regions. Countries that have not yet set up an IXP could learn from others that already possess the points. Few countries have already started using the technologies. The panels, moderated by Michuki Mwangi (pictured above) discussed some of the obstacles impeding interconnections in Africa.
