OBJECTIVE

To obtain a challenging internetworking position with room for growth in a solid & focused company that can offer longevity & stability.

EXPERIENCE

• Performed Configuration changes and 2nd level support on Cisco routers 2500--7500series and switches CAT1900&5500 , IBM routers 2210/2216 and some Bay routers using Site Manager in various network environments under AT&T s global umbrella I1.1, MDNS, CNS, LEMS & VPNs. Most of these networks use Frame-Relay which consists of Hundreds of Customer Companies and over 4,000 nodes.
• Protocols and Technologies worked with on a daily basis include: TCP/IP, IPX, OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, RIP,VoIP, Frame-Relay, MPLS, NAT, HSRP, ISDN, DLSw, RSRB and some AppleTalk to name a few.
• Worked as part of a Team on the "Cisco 7000 Migration Project" for the I1.1 & MDNS networks. This entailed removing all customer connections including Standard Discreet Serial Circuits, Frame-relay, Channelized T s, SW56 etc., from all Cisco 7000 backbones and re-configuring them over 6,000 connections on the new Replacements Cisco 7500 series routers within a specific time frame error free.
• Worked as part of a Team on the Dallas Node Move Project on the I1.1 network. 12 Backbones were removed from the node and upgraded with 6 new Backbones that would provide better performance and services in the MDNS network as well as the option to do Frame-relay. This also reduced costs to AT&T. This entailed moving Customer links from the Old Backbones to the new Backbones within a specific time frame error free to maintain customer confidence. Frame-Relay, MPLS, NAT, HSRP, ISDN, DLSw, RSRB and some AppleTalk to name a few.

• Performed configuration changes and 2nd level support for Cisco routers 2500-7500series and IBM routers 2210 & 6611 models on the I1.1 and MDNS networks of the IBM Global Network.
• Protocols worked with on a daily basis: TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, RIP, NAT, HSRP, DHCP, ISDN, DLSw, RSRB & X.25.
• Trained 6 TSSC Subsidiary of IBM employees the basics of Frame-Relay and how to implement Frame-Relay on Cisco & IBM 2210 routers.
• Prepped them for a project they were acquired for, to perform migrations from discreet circuits to frame-relay circuits for customers on the IBM Global Network. I also trained them on the administrative process to get the job done.
• Worked as part of a Team on the I1.1 OSPF to BGP Migration Project. This entailed removing OSPF from the entire Network Backbone and replacing it with BGP. This was implemented to rid the Backbone of occasional OSPF storms and to speed up the routing table conversion in the backbone. This in turn alleviated unwanted outages to the customer due to OSPF storms among other things. This Migration was completed in a fashion where it was transparent to all customers network wide.
• Focal Point of Contact for the Circuit City X.25 Implementation and Migration to VPN Project. This entailed configuring and testing X.25 communications and Frame-Relay to over 50 sites, Configuring 3 Hubs 2 of which backed one another and 1 for disaster recovery just in case the other 2 routers went down .

• Protocols worked with on a daily basis: TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, OSPF, NAT, HSRP, ISDN, DLSw, RSRB and DHCP.
• Focal Point of Contact for the VHA1 Network Address Translation NAT and Named Access-List Implementation pilot. This entailed configuring and testing NAT on all VHA1 sites over 90 sites . Documenting bugs and fixes as well as the Pros and Cons of implementing the Named Access-list as opposed to the Standard Access-list in the VHA1 environment.

• Designated Team Lead of 6 person Install Team. We Built Local Area Networks LANS base wide. Migrated the entire base from ARCnet to 10mb Ethernet.
• Terminated CAT5 UTP, designed the cabling Infrastructure, built and setup the communications closet equipment included: i.e. Hubs, Fiber, switches etc., pulled cable to PCs and setup the desktop for Network connectivity and troubleshot any LAN issues including cabling, hub, switch, and desktop operating system issues.
• Supported over 100 nodes and 12,000 users via field visits, telephone and the Unix based Action Request System ARS from the BNCC Helpdesk
• Maintained several WAN ATM links using Cisco routers 7000, 7200, 4500 and 3000 series
• Protocols Worked with: ATM, TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, DHCP, BootP, NetBIOS, and NetBEUI

• Focal Point for LAN Issues and Desktop Support
• Troubleshot and Maintained a 24 user Ethernet LAN
• Worked on a project to upgrade all PCs at my site running windows3.11 to win95 and to get all PCs and 2 printers on an Ethernet Network. Which entailed installing Ethernet NICs in all PCs and cabling them to the communications closet and putting the new win95 software on the PCs that needed it and adding IP addresses and other information to the PC s TCP/IP stack.
