Course Summary + Link related Projects and documentation

Course overview

This course helped me to learn how to design and implement local and wide area networks capable of simultaneous transport of real-time traffic and multiprotocol data over packet-switched and circuit-switched networks. An emphasis is placed on the integration of diverse communications technologies, while considering the effects of engineering decisions on overall performance, from both business and technology perspectives.

Key skills learned

  • Routing & switching concepts (e.g., OSPF, VLANs, IPv6)
  • Access control and segmentation
  • Verification and troubleshooting workflows
  • Monitoring network health using SNMP (LibreNMS)

Tools / equipment

  • Enterprise-style routers/switches (Cisco, Juniper, HP/Aruba)
  • Wireshark, terminal access, Nutanix VMs
