Working with sales and customers to design, price, implement and support new systems.My most satisfying achievement in Link-Connect was designing a Multi-Link WAN router based on Linux to provide increased bandwidth and resilience using a mixture of Broadband and Leased Lines. This included the scripts to monitor the links and adjust routing based on the available connections as well as custom radius profiles and VPDN groups on the LNS’s. I enjoyed the challenge of customizing Linux to run read only and strip out all but the necessary programs and libraries required for the device to run as a router. My final project at Link-Connect was to migrate all physical servers to Virtual Machines, some were rebuilt from scratch and others were migrated using P2V: In this role some of my key deliverables were:• Maintain the Broadband Access Network (5000 connections).• Maintain all Web, Email (pop/imap and smtp), Backup, Database (Mysql Clustering) Radius and Monitoring servers. These were all mirrored and/or Load Balanced and spread across 3 Data Centres.• Maintain all Peering and Transit connections.• Support Team Leadership and Mentoring.• Vmware testing deployment.• SAN Maintenance.• Migrate all physical servers including corp file and email services to Virtual machines.
