Building toward CCNA

Network Engineer focused on routing, switching, VLANs, and IP services in lab-based environments. I use Cisco Packet Tracer, GNS3, and Wireshark to build topologies, trace traffic, and validate configuration changes with a structured troubleshooting approach — bringing Java OOP and Docker familiarity to support scripting tasks and containerized lab work while preparing for CCNA (200-301).

Things I've shipped

01

Network Simulation & Troubleshooting Labs

Configured and tested VLANs, 802.1Q trunking, and EtherChannel on simulated multi-switch topologies aligned with CCNA (200-301) exam objectives. Implemented and verified Spanning Tree Protocol (STP/RSTP/PVST+) to prevent Layer 2 loops in redundant switch topologies. Configured static routing, OSPF, and access control lists (ACLs) on simulated router topologies for secure inter-VLAN connectivity. Used Wireshark to capture and analyze network traffic, identifying packet flow and diagnosing connectivity issues. Built and tested VM and Docker environments to model client-server and containerized network scenarios.

Student Management System

Designed and implemented a CRUD system (Add, Remove, Modify, View) for student records using Java classes and objects. Applied OOP concepts (encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism) with input validation and error handling for data integrity.
