This repository showcases my hands-on networking experience with both Cisco Packet Tracer simulations and real Cisco hardware in my university lab.
As well as self-led projects I have worked on outside of university.
- Switching Lab – Demonstarted Ethernet switch forwarding process by configuring hosts to Catalyst 3750 Series Ethernet switches. Exemplifying my understanding of the data-link layer.
- Router Configuration – Configured Routers and Hosts to succesfuly interconnect local networks. Confirming how routers forward packets and my inderstanding of protocols at the network layer.
- Network Programming – Connected multiple networks and verified routing tables. Wrote software that succesfully acted as a Server or Client sending TCP packets to hosts using the Socket API infrastructure.
- Pi-hole using Raspberry Pi Model 4B - Pi-hole blocks Ads on your home network by acting as a DNS sinkhole. Through this project I strenghtened my understanding of DNS servers, queries, and how to speed up my home network by not having to load ads.
