// ABOUT ME
Who Am I?
Hi, I'm Muhammad Zulazmir bin Azmizam an aspiring Network Engineer focused on bridging physical data center deployment with virtualized enterprise routing, cloud security, and zero-trust telemetry.
During my Diploma Internship at GB Network Solution, I gained hands-on data center experience staging Enterprise‑Grade servers and racking Cisco Catalyst switches real enterprise hardware, not just theory.
Outside of internship work, I run my own home lab built on Proxmox VE, with an OPNsense firewall handling inter-VLAN routing, Cloudflare Zero Trust tunnels for secure remote access, and self-hosted services like Pi-hole and Uptime Kuma which you can explore live via the status link in the header.
I like learning by building things that actually run in production-like conditions.
// WHAT I DO
Here Is My Expertise
Networking & Protocols
Enterprise L2/L3 routing, VLAN trunking, and secure protocol configuration on Cisco IOS.
Hardware & DC Deployment
Physical server mounting, enterprise switch staging, and structured cabling on real Dell / Cisco gear.
Virtualization & Firewalls
Proxmox VE hypervisor administration, OPNsense stateful firewalling, and isolated LXC micro-services.
Cloud & Zero Trust
Cloudflare Zero Trust tunnels and cloud deployments that avoid opening inbound firewall ports.

// INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE
Data Center Operations Internship
Practical hands‑on exposure gained during my Diploma Internship, executing physical server provisioning, rack elevations, and structured cabling with enterprise‑grade vendor hardware.
Server Provisioning & Deployment
Diploma InternshipAssisted senior infrastructure engineers with the end-to-end physical deployment and racking of a diverse range of enterprise-grade servers. Gained hands‑on experience across multiple hardware platforms, handling rack space allocation, rail kit installations, storage health verification, OS installation and fine-tuning, and network card assignments.
Cisco Switch Staging & Rack Elevation
Diploma InternshipMounted and cabled Cisco switch hardware and patch panels in live rack units. Executed structured cabling runs (Cat6 & Fiber optic), cable dressing with Velcro bundling, and maintained strict hot/cold aisle thermal compliance.
// FEATURED IMPLEMENTATIONS
Engineering & Infrastructure Projects
Enterprise‑Grade Virtualized Network Architecture & Security Lab
Designed and engineered an enterprise‑grade virtualized network ecosystem leveraging Proxmox VE, physical Cisco hardware, and OPNsense stateful firewalling. Integrated network‑wide encrypted DNS resolution and strict zero‑trust segmentation.

Academic / AWS Deployment
UiTM CSC510
Rules of Inference System (AWS Deployment)
Web application developed for CSC510 Discrete Mathematics. Translates natural language into propositional logic expressions and generates step‑by‑step proofs using 8 rules of inference via custom Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) and forward‑chaining.
# Cloud Infrastructure Note:
Configured AWS Amplify single‑page application (SPA) rewrite rules to handle client‑side routing seamless refresh cycles.
AWS Amplify
Public Homelab Uptime & Zero‑Trust Telemetry
Engineered a public monitoring endpoint exposing real‑time homelab service metrics and uptime status. Implemented outbound Cloudflare Tunnels (cloudflared) to eliminate the need for inbound open ports on the firewall.
# Security Architecture:
Inbound firewall ports: 0 Open Ports
Traffic proxied over Cloudflare Zero Trust encrypted tunnel headers.
