IPv6 – NEDians Wanted
Posted by Tee Emm on August 29, 2007
Attention all students at NED University:
If NED and IPv6 both strike a chord with you, please get in touch with Dr Abdul Azeem Siddiqui and Mr Asad Arfeen at the university. Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) is in the process of forming an IPv6 Focus Group to establish an experimental IPv6 network in Pakistan across various public universities. They have approached NED university for (enthusiastic) volunteers for the project that has sufficient budgets to remain interesting. The communication has been extended by Dr Shafaat Bazaz, Foreign Professor (HEC) Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology.
It is a great opportunity to establish the lead of NED in important subject areas of our times. There is a full army of technologists belonging to NED serving the local industry (and outside Pakistan) which the volunteers will find with them in this effort. Go ahead!
gr8 opportunity, but i hope it doesn’t face the same fate which the CISCO lab faced few years ago.
Asad: This is not an initiative being taken AT NED. This is from PTA and we are seeking NEDians’ participation in it.
oh, nice to hear that! i hope it succeeds.
Great effort, could be a little more proactive specially as a networking tool.
Fahad Ali Khan, Senior Network Engineer Cybernet, batch 99-00 of CIS, is already leading the ‘ Project 6core’. ISPs experimental integration is completed under him. For information you can contact him at fahad@xpedientonline.net
