The ENUBET experiment (NP06/ENUBET at CERN) has the goal of proving the concept of a "monitored neutrino beam", for a superior knowledge of the produced neutrino flux and high-precision cross-section measurement. To achieve this, an instrumented decay tunnel will be used in order to directly monitor the products of the neutrino production vertices. The ENUBET collaboration is studying and designing this facility in all its different aspects: from the data acquisition and detector hardware, to the assessment of systematics and analysis. The present contribution will focus on the topic of the beamline design, highlighting the main results and the most recent developments.
