Senior Network Engineer
Core Network Support
University of Florida OIT Network Services
I am involved in supporting the University of Florida's Campus Core Network. The network
consists of a dual switched gigabit ethernet backbone linking over 400
departmental subnets to campus computing resources to the Internet and
Internet II. The network currently routes IP, IPX, and Appletalk; SNA
traffic is carried via DLSw+ tunnels.
