My own experience so far has centered on:</p> <ul> <li>Level-2/3 hardware offloading.</li> <li>OSPF and BGP-OSPF interactions in networks with multiple gateway routers running BGP.</li> <li>VPLS tunnels using BGP-signalled VPLS.</li> <li>OpenVPN, IP-SEC and Wireguard VPN.</li> <li>RouterOS scripting</li> </ul> <p>Other building blocks include Ubiquity devices, Siklu radios and Netonix switches.</p>
