Hello Carolin, I know that, but Vodafone Group (AS 1273) is a completely independent organisation / network than Vodafone Germany (AS3209). Just added Niels from DE and Otto from Group, they can confirm that!

In the past we already had sponsorship at EPF (my former company was Uniberg). If that works for you, please let me know. Btw - I used DECIX, because we have a partner relationship with them so far - but no customer relationship.

Unfortunately, your registration for the forum has been declined because your company is not currently listed in PeeringDB as peering at DE-CIX. Additionally, the ASN you provided belongs to Vodafone, and Vodafone has already reached the maximum limit of four attendees. If you disagree with our decision, please send an email to info@peering-forum.eu<mailto:info@peering-forum.eu>. We apologise for the inconvenience.
