Hi all, I have been in IT for about 8 years and in Networking for about 7 years. My previous work experiences include working with very large government enterprise networks, a (regional/national) ISP and a cloud service provider.  Currently I work in the VAR space.

I also used to browse the old forum for many years under a different handle.  My current focus is mainly on data center networking technology (switches, firewall and load-balancer) often for both presales and post-sale roles.

HELLO GENTLEMEN!

williamtyrell78 --- here :)

Sorry I was a little late joining on. new F5's had me tied up.


My name is Will, and I am a network engineer for a fairly large family owned environment of about 4000+ users. Been in the industry for 4-5 years now actively. Currently pursuing my NP, and then moving onto DC track.

I was heavily involved in the old net-forum, and look forward to be involved here as well.

I started networking while serving in the Army.  I worked as a 31F20(Network Switching Systems Operator and Maintainer).  I am now a Systems Engineer II for a large retailer with my main focus on networking.  Outside of work I enjoy listening to punk rock/hardcore, working out, and hanging with my wife.

Hi,

I'm Langly... and I'm an alcoholic in IT! Ok not really but who doesn't love a good AA monologue?

Been doing the IT thing for about 8 years now, currently working in a datacenter role mostly dealing in storage and all the networking to customers arrays. Stuck in Utah with my current gig but may try to relocate to Seattle or Austin in the next few years.

The help the old forums gave me and direction has been invaluable in my career. I'm glad to see the community decide to move on. The old sites "new" layout was nasty. Also, the new owners definitely killed the community off with their lack of attention to the forums.

Currently studying for my VCP and CCNA Datacenter then going to start on CCNP R+S. Been married for 3 years, and have my first little one due mid February. I'm a climber/biker and avid gamer.
