Here are some of the projects I've worked on.
A resilient network infrastructure designed for efficient VLAN management, inter-VLAN communication, and loop prevention. Key features include VLANs for HR, Finance, and IT, VTP synchronization, STP for redundancy, and a Router-on-a-Stick setup for inter-VLAN routing.
This group project, developed using the MERN stack, streamlines lecture hall management with real-time functionalities. Students can access personalized timetables and updates, lecturers can schedule and reschedule lectures while reporting issues, admins manage operations and generate reports, and hall attendants ensure hall readiness. Designed to optimize efficiency and communication across all user roles.
A real-world network configuration with VLAN setups for IT, HR, and Sales, dynamic IP allocation using DHCP, inter-VLAN routing, traffic control through ACLs, and efficient routing with RIP. Showcased skills in subnetting, troubleshooting, and optimizing network performance to meet practical requirements.
This group project focused on developing a smart, affordable system for agricultural innovation using Arduino Uno. It includes features like monitoring and controlling temperature, humidity, soil moisture, water levels, and sunlight, designed to reduce human labor and enhance efficiency.
