Haula Nankya - Network Administrator

Hello, I'm Haula Nankya

🌐 Senior Network Administrator

I architect and maintain PureHosts' entire network infrastructure — from core routing to edge security. Every packet, every connection, zero compromise.

TCP/IP Stack Cisco / Linux Networking Firewalld / iptables VPN (WireGuard/IPsec) BGP / OSPF Wireshark

🔌 High-Performance Network Core

PureHosts relies on a fully redundant network architecture with multiple upstream providers, enterprise switches, and low-latency routes. I manage VLAN segmentation, load balancing, and failover mechanisms to ensure zero downtime.

Our data center uplinks are monitored 24/7, and I continuously optimize routing policies using BGP to deliver the fastest response times to users worldwide.
