CNNOG conferences provide a forum for information exchange among network
operators, engineers, and researchers. Meetings are held 1-2 times each year,
and include panels, presentations, tutorial sessions, and BOFs. <br>
<br>
The CNNOG community is invited to attend and participate in this forum, which
offers numerous opportunities to share ideas, explore research and development,
and interact with leaders in this important field of network operations.
Vendors are encouraged to work with operators to present deployment experiences
with the vendor's products and interoperability. </span></p>
