About Christopher Boley

Sales attempts via my LinkedIn page are NOT welcome.Thank you.Linux / FREEBSD / OPENBSD are my favorite toys. As of 2021, I was able to add them to my full time professional experience as well as working with Cloud technology full time. 14 Years of Enterprise level Network Engineering experience. For the past 3 years I've spent more time managing AWS/Azure, RHEL (and RHEL Variants) Linux, Ubuntu Linux, and managing company technology resources both in a technical and administrative capacity. I still log in and get my hands dirty all the time, but I also have to coordinate the planning and management of said technology collaborating with other teams to facilitate operational and security related projects. A large portion of my time these days is spent facilitating infrastructure care and feeding, security posture care and feeding, and compliance management. This touches the AWS, Azure, LINUX, Windows server, Identity/Access Management, and all matters of industry standards compliance based work.Certifications:* A+, Net+, Sec+ ( CE = Expired )* Microsoft Windows 7 (70-680)* MCITP 2008 Server Admin.* Cisco CCNA ( CE = Expired )* Clearance: Previously held DoD SecretProficient with IOS upgrades and configuration mgmt.: Cisco Routers:Cisco Layer 2 / Layer 3 LAN / WAN Design / Mgmt / ImplementationASR1002's, 2900's, 3800's, 3900's, 4300's 4500's, and 2800 series routers.Switches:3750, 3850, 3550, 3650, 2960, Catalyst 9300, 4506 Chassis Switches, Nexus 9K andNexus 5K Fabric SwitchFirewalls:Palo Alto FirewallsCisco ASA firewalls Juniper ScreenOS firewallsVPN AppliancesFreeBSD & OpenBSD (pf) based firewallsFortigate Firewalls*Other Skillsets*Active Directory Server Mgmt 2008R2/2012R2/2016/2019 EnvironmentDHCP, DNS, Windows Deployment Services Linux/BSD installation, configuration, Account mgmt.

In a nutshell it's SDN (Software Defined Networking) Most professionals only see it in a polished point and click environment. This weekend I set up OVS on a Ubuntu Linux LibVirt based KVM host. I loaded up a few guest OS's. I set up an etherchannel in LACP active format on both sides. That worked great. I'm still trying to get my guest OS's to interface to the VBRIDGE that I build inside of Open Vswitch. It requires some manual edits to the XML definition file to the VM guest. Very tedious but a lot of good practical learning experience happening. Maybe I'll post an article after I finish setting mine up on how others can do the same. Edit: Feb 2021 I accomplished this long ago and as with most things saved all my notes. If you'd like a copy reach out!
