Skills BGP routing. BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is the routing protocol that powers the internet. It acts as a digital postal service by determining the most efficient path for data to travel between different large-scale networks-known as Autonomous Systems (AS)-across the globe OSPF routing. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a dynamic routing protocol. It functions like a highly efficient GPS for data by maintaining a constant map of network paths and calculating the fastest routes using Dijkstra's algorithm. It is widely used in large enterprise networks to intelligently route traffic. Routing Redistribution (process of taking the routing information learned by one protocol or domain and injecting it into another) SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol is an application-layer standard protocol used to monitor, manage, and configure IP-network devices like routers, switches, servers, and printers. It operates on UDP ports 161 and 162, enabling network management systems to collect data, track performance, and receive real-time alerts) Network protocol ARP (Address Resolution Protocol primarily operates at Layer 2 (the Data Link Layer) of the OSI model. However, because it acts as the bridge that connects Layer 3 (Network Layer) IP addresses to Layer 2 MAC addresses, it is often described as working between Layers 2 and 3) Network discovery. Network discovery is the automated process of scanning a network to find connected devices, map their relationships, and identify available services. Device IP Addressing on LAN IPSEC Tunnel
