Navigate to Live Stream 

There are two different live streams at NANOG 80 - the agenda will link you to the correct stream for the session you want to view. Monday and Wednesday will be on Track 1 only. Tuesday will have both Track 1 and Track 2.

    Track 1 + chat window

    Track 2 + chat window

Participate in Conference Chat 

The chat is built into the same page of the live stream and will run for the entire length of the conference. You will see three tabs within the chat. The first is for general conversations, the second is to send in questions for the Q&A portion of presentations, and the third is to ask for help.  Each of these windows is moderated by NANOG Support or Program Committee members.

How to take part in Virtual Expo 

NANOG is pleased to offer you the opportunity to interact with our sponsors!  Visit the NANOG 80 Virtual Expo throughout the conference to learn about the latest technologies, and connect with reps from 19 North American companies. You'll have the chance to win a variety of swag + prizes in each booth, and pick up clues for our daily scavenger hunts. Expo doors are open through Friday, 10/30! 

Sincerely,

NANOG Staff
