This page is purely for the submission of papers for the combined ZANOG / iWeek event in 2026
Please register at https://www.iweek.org.za.
The Call for Papers is now open.
For ZANOG 2026, we’re particularly interested in operationally focused talks and case studies, including (but not limited to):
- Network operations and troubleshooting in production environments
- Automation and tooling for day-to-day network operations
- Monitoring, observability, and incident response
- IPv6 deployment, migration, and operational lessons
- Routing operations, BGP hygiene, RPKI, and MANRS
- Security operations and network resilience
- Scaling networks: people, process, and technology
- Lessons learned from outages, migrations, or major changes
We welcome full talks, lightning talks, panels, and experience reports, and we strongly encourage submissions from operators of all sizes — ISPs, enterprises, content networks, and infrastructure providers.
ZANOG is a community-driven, non-commercial event. Speakers do not pay to present, and attendance is free for participants.
Submission deadline: 27 February 2026
