Every year I say that AfPIF is the single best event that ISOC puts on.
Because interconnecting networks is the very essence of what we do. This
year it is virtual, and spread out over time, but no less valuable.

ISOC Live posted: "On Tuesday November 3 2020, at 13:00-15.00 UTC, the
African IXP Association, in partnership with the Internet Society, presents
the fourth webinar in the Virtual Peering Series – Africa, with the theme
'IXP Traffic Behavior During the Pandemic in Africa'."

Traffic Behavior During the Pandemic in Africa
<https://www.afpif.org/virtual-peering-series-africa/ixp-traffic-behavior-during-the-pandemic-in-africa/>*
'.

This session aims to understand the behavior of traffic at African IXPs
during the COVID-19 pandemic. Was there significant traffic increase due to
the lockdown? Were there countries where there was a decrease in traffic
mainly because people traditionally accessed more Internet from their
offices? How critical are IXPs in these situations? It would also be
relevant to understand the inter-regional traffic pattern during the
pandemic.

».

Cette session vise à comprendre le comportement du trafic sur les IXP
africains pendant la pandémie COVID-19. Y a-t-il eu une augmentation
significative du trafic en raison du verrouillage? Y a-t-il eu des pays où
le trafic a diminué principalement parce que les gens accédaient
traditionnellement à plus d'Internet depuis leurs bureaux? Dans quelle
mesure les IXP sont-ils critiques dans ces situations? Il serait également
utile de comprendre la configuration du trafic interrégional pendant la
pandémie.
