Cover image for I find the network fault that already defeated someone else
"It works, except when it doesn't." Those are the jobs I'm usually called for, and they're almost never what they look like.
A slow network that turns out to be a duplex mismatch. An application that fails while ping succeeds, because of MTU on a tunnelled path. A VPN dropping every few minutes because rekeying and dead-peer detection are fighting a NAT timeout. A fault that only happens in one direction, because the return path doesn't match the forward path.
I work from packet captures, interface counters and the running config, and I tell you the cause with the evidence for it — not a list of things to try.
Deliverables
The cause, in writing, with the capture or counters that prove it
The fix, and how to verify it held
A live troubleshooting session if the fault needs to be reproduced
If I can't find it, I say so, and you don't pay for a diagnosis I didn't deliver.
