The marathon competition includes the performance of a competitive task, which participants solve within 3 days to obtain a practical result.

There are many Debian-based machines in the enterprise infrastructure, and the rejection of Cisco network equipment in favor of Linux-based routers is also being tested.
The competitive task contains many tasks based on the experience of real operation of information systems in the field of integration and outsourcing of corporate computing networks.
The participants of the marathon competition are required to be able to use the technologies included in the certification programs LPIC, Red Hat, CCNA, CCNP, MCSA.
