SUMMARY
Senior Network Engineer with fifteen plus years of
experience in the design, configuration and management
of Local and Wide Area Network with emphasis in
utilizing Cisco technologies with various industries,
including telecommunication, manufacturing, high tech,
banking and finance.
Twelve Plus years of experience with Financial companies like
Credit Suisse.
At Elanti Systems I have worked on design, implementation and
test of MPLS-TE (MPLS Traffic Engineering) in the BGP free
core. Implementation includes configuration of CE, PE and P
(provider) routers and creation of MPLS-TE tunnels.
While TE tunnels are running between the PEs, in the BGP free
core, the IP packets are label switched via LDP. IGP in the
MPLS core is OSPF or IS-IS.
Used OSPF in the MPLS network as IGP routing protocol in the
BGP free core network. In the same network I have configured
Cisco and Juniper routers, 7200 vxr and J4350 and used OSPF
for the MPLS-TE tunnels and also in Constraint-based SPF
calculation used OSPF between the Head and Tail end routers,
also in the MPLS-TE environment. OSPF (or ISIS) and RSVP
extensions are used for resource (BW) reservation/allocation
of LSPs between the source and destination PEs.
Installed OC12, OC3, T3, T1 and MetroEthernet Services in
support of Credit Suisse Market Data Services group (Equity,
Fixed Income and IBD) from providers like BT Radianz and
their low latency, sub-millisecond shared Infrastructure, for
the Multicast environment getting feeds from NYSE, NASDAQ,
SFTI, CME, etc.
Designed network architecture and configure, install, and
troubleshoot both LAN and WAN network devices. This includes
switches, routers, Cisco Wireless Controllers, access
points, carrier services and VOIP equipment at Company main
offices/Branches and Company Off-Site Events, all over US and
South America.

HIGHLIGHTS AND TECHNOLOGIES
. Created and managed the VLAN, VTP, STP on switches, using
Catalyst 2960G, 3560E, 3750E, 4503, 6509. Designed and
configured Hot Standby Routing protocol (HSRP) and Ether
Channel on Catalyst switches to make core switching
redundancy.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Elanti Systems, Somerset, NJ
2009-current
Senior Network Engineer
. Design, implementation and test of MPLS-TE (MPLS Traffic
Engineering) in BGP free core.
. Implementation includes configuration of CE, PE and P
(provider) routers and creation of MPLS-TE tunnels.
. While TE tunnels are running between the PEs, in the BGP
free core the IP packets are label switched via LDP. BGP
and LDP using TCP as transport protocol. IGP in the MPLS
core is OSPF or IS-IS.
. During the last 6 months I have been using OSPF in MPLS
network as IGP in the BGP free core network. In the same
network I have configured Cisco and Juniper routers, 7200
vxr / and J4350, with MPLS-TE tunnels and also in
Constraint-based SPF calculation used OSPF between the Head
and Tail end routers. OSPF (or ISIS) extensions are used
for resource (BW) allocation in the MPLS-TE network. Have
also used (OSPF) autoroute announce in order for OSPF to
take the MPLS tunnel into its SPF calculation. MPLS-TE is
running on Cisco 7200 vxr and J4350 series.
