- Configure routers using LACP/EtherChannel, CDP, LLDP, BFD, UDLD, RIP, EIGRP, OSPF, IS ? IS, BGP, LFA, IGMP, PIM, IP SLA, QoS, IPSec, AAA, DHCP, DNS, NTP, SSH, SNMPv3, SSL/TLS, FHRP (HSRP/VRRP/GLBP), and Syslog.

- Configure switches using LACP/EtherChannel, STP, VLANs, IGMP, AAA, NTP, SSH, SNMPv3, SSL/TLS, and Syslog.

- Configure firewalls including RA VPN, Site ? to ? Site VPN, rulesets, AAA, NAT/PAT, NTP, SSH, SNMPv3, SSL/TLS, and Syslog.

- Calculate bandwidth requirements and tuning parameters for routing protocol convergence.

- Update Visio diagrams and topology documentation.

- Test concepts and performance in the network lab.

- Research Enterprise ? class networking solutions and evaluate new products.

- Troubleshoot LACP/EtherChannel, FIB/RIB/MFIB/MRIB, VLANs, CDP/LLDP, STP, BFD, UDLD, routing protocols, multicast, IPSec, QoS, and network services. Determine root cause and produce RCA documentation.

- Perform configuration backups on routers, switches, and firewalls.

- Install, configure, and troubleshoot network monitoring systems.

- Perform packet captures, build filters, and analyze results using Wireshark.

- Collect logs and statistics from routers, switches, firewalls, and ATLAS devices.

- Collect table data for interface statistics, FIB, RIB, MFIB, MRIB, VLAN, CDP, LLDP, STP, BFD, RIP, EIGRP, OSPF, IS ? IS, BGP, PIM, IP SLA, and QoS.

- Update IPAM records.

- Configure SPAN/port mirroring and capture configurations.

- Investigate physical ? layer issues, determine root cause, and produce RCA documentation.

- Trace L2/L3 paths between endpoints and create Visio diagrams.

- Develop, coordinate, and perform configuration changes to network hardware and systems.

- Identify improvement areas and implement enhancements for capacity, scalability, reliability, security, and quality.

- Maintain accurate network documentation, standards, and change management records.

- Generate network performance and capacity reports for management.

- Plan and execute network upgrades, migrations, and expansions.

- Provide daily operational support for network infrastructure and system health monitoring.

- Develop and test prototypes and demonstrate functionality based on requirements.

- Participate in system design planning, peer reviews, approvals, and LMR infrastructure implementation.

- Provide engineering support to resolve design ? related field and production issues.

- Maintain strong communication and collaboration across departments.

- Exhibit professional behavior including leadership, urgency, independent judgment, teamwork, integrity, and creativity.

- Document work, test plans, and results.
