OJT at Media Farm

Friday, May 9th, 2008

It’s my third day on the job, not counting the orientation and I can only say that this will be a great learning experience, if not only a test of endurance and stamina. Working as a network administrator in a call center is taxing, as an agent disconnected from the interent means losing dollars per minute. Constantly monitoring the network, we have our indivdual tasks as well. For example, I just finished setting up a PHP and MySQL site as instructed by the head.

I’m learning all about VoIP technology, ATA boxes, softphones and the configuration of the Trixbox IP-PBX system. We’ll also be tackling Ubuntu and I just finished learning about PHP programming. Before this internship I have no clue what ATA boxes or IP-PBX are.

I gotta go, I’m eating up bandwidth reserved for our agents.
