Confidential, Pleasanton, CA
Principal Network Engineer and Architect
Responsibilities:
- Internet Architecture. I redesigned Confidential ’s Enterprise Internet infrastructure. The scope of this project included multiple Internet POP’s and DMZ’s, distributed tiered firewall system, Security, and high availability. BGP peering with the ISP’s configured at each site, with iBGP and EIGRP redistribution for dynamic failover between sites.
- Content Network Architecture. I redesigned our content delivery infrastructure. The design included migrating from Cisco Local Director’s to the Cisco CSS switches. The content inspections include cookies, URL, tcp/udp ports, http redirection, SSL termination, VRRP, and active-active CSS operation. All of the company’s Internal and revenue generating, customer-facing applications have been optimized through the use of CSS.
- EIGRP redesign. Objective was to optimize EIGRP routing and prevent SIA’s through summarization, stub networking, eliminating PPP host routes from ISDN DBU, and manipulating routes by adjusting delay, off-set lists, and distribute-lists. Included reallocation of IP addresses on summarizable bit boundaries.
- Multicast redesign. Designed our PIM sparse-dense mode network. Used precise placement of RP’s and mapping agents, ttl scoping, and adminstratively-scoped boundaries.
- Cisco IPT and VoIP architecture. I designed, defined the standards, and set the strategic direction of our Cisco VoIP deployment. We have deployed Cisco IPT both domestically and internationally. We currently have four Call Manager clusters. We use MGCP 8XT1 Voice gateways, h.323 FXO/FXS gateways, and Cisco 3640 and Cisco 3700 series routers running SRST code. LLQ and FRF .12 are deployed at WAN endpoints for prioritization of RTP and call control flows. LAN switch transmit queues have been prioritized for voice traffic. We also integrated Siemens phonemail using SMDI and VG248. We also deployed IPCC Express for a small call center internationally.
- Core Redesign. I designed a pure layer 3 multi-gigabit architecture optimized for speedy packet switching on the Catalyst 6500 platform. All components of WAN, MAN, Remote access, and Internet layers, and their IP address summarizations, have been logically placed within the core architecture for efficiency and high-availability.
- Extranet. IPSec VPN infrastructure. Designed an infrastructure with high availability using Nokia Checkpoint firewalls, Cisco 7206VXR routers with hardware acceleration, IKE dead peer detection, GRE for multicast and routing updates, and reverse-route injection.
- Network Infrastructure Security. I designed a secure network infrastructure that mitigated the effects of DOS, Viruses, and zero-day worms, through the use of IOS features such as TCP intercept, unicast RPF, egress/ingress packet filtering, and NBAR. We were able to limit the effect of packet spoofing, code red virus, and SQL slammer worm.
- PGS Network. I designed the PGS Network which included IPSec VPN tunnels, role-based authentication, web-authorization with RADIUS infoblox backend., and high-availability.
- Large merger and acquisition experience integrating networks from Vantive corporation, JD Edwards, and now Oracle into Peoplesofts’ enterprise network.
