NLNOG

2025 was a good year for NLNOG! We hosted three great events, with a large number of attendees at every one of them. It was great to see not just familiar faces, but also a lot of first time visitors. We hope this will continue in 2026, starting with our New Years Drink on January 30th in De Rechtbank in Utrecht. Details on this event can be found on https://nlnog.net/events. Organizing events like and building and hosting projects like IRR Explorer, NLNOG RING and NLNOG Looking Glass is mostly done by volunteers. It's great to see so many enthusiastic people working on these things, thank you so much for your time and effort 🧡 We're lucky to have so many sponsors who help us to host events and services free of charge for everyone. So a big thank you to AMS-IX, Arista Networks, BIT B.V., Corero Network Security, Duocast, FiberRing, Fusix Networks BV, Genie Networks, i3D.net, KPN, Leaseweb, LONAP Ltd, Nextpertise, NL-ix, Nokia, NTT DATA, One Zero IT, High5! B.V. - OpenBSD Amsterdam, PowerDNS, Quanza, Recorded Future, RETN, Smartoptics, SOLID OPTICS, Speakup, Speed-IX, Telesol Group and Yourhosting, without your support this wouldn't be possible!

Since the beginning over ten years ago, the NLNOG RING has been a huge success. It makes debugging issues between networks easier and more efficient by providing access in many networks, and the tools to analyse problems. New networks are always welcome to join the NLNOG RING. To explain in a bit more details what the RING is and how you can benefit from it, check out the slidedeck we have made available at https://lnkd.in/eE6pR83t. New RING nodes are always welcome, especially if they're in networks, countries and cities that aren't covered yet. Check out the slides for more details on the requirements and how to join. And please share this presentation with others who may benefit from joining the RING!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience, Peter!
