Networking is evolving rapidly. For years, engineers relied on command-line precision to build and secure networks. Now, automation, APIs, and cloud platforms define the future. This project helps you bridge that gap with confidence — combining practical CLI knowledge with automation and cloud design principles.

Who is it for?

Network engineers, IT pros, and architects ready to modernize their skill set — no heavy programming pre-reqs.

Written from lived experience: real scenarios, practical teaching, and a mindset for change.

What you’ll learn

Automate VLANs, interfaces, OSPF, and BGP with Ansible.
Instrument telemetry & monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana.
Secure with ACLs, gateways, and VPNs — then validate.
Map fundamentals to cloud: VPCs, subnets, and hybrid design.
