        commendable, and our commitment to bolstering this momentum is
        unwavering. By providing our members and the CRA with the necessary
        technical expertise and services, we aim to facilitate a smooth transition from

        IPv4 to IPv6 to meet the increasing demand for connectivity and support the
        growth and development of Qatar's digital infrastructure. The RIPE NCC
        specialized training covers a wide array of critical subjects, particularly IPv6

        and routing security, and is enhanced by pioneering tools such as RIPE Atlas,
        RIPEstat, RIS and others. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the CRA for their
        pivotal role and continued collaboration on this transformative journey." said
