[Discussion] Which direction should linux operation and network engineers choose?

1. Select linux operation and maintenance.

2. Network engineers are more about troubleshooting network faults, and generally need more knowledge about routing, switching, firewall, vulnerability scanning and intrusion detection equipment. Such as Cisco, H3C, Shen Xin, Tianrongxin and Venus.

3.linux operation and maintenance should understand linux system, server hardware, network equipment and status, power environment of server room, management and use of database, backup and recovery of storage equipment, information security and network planning, development and management of server and application software.

4.linux operation and maintenance and network engineer, the division of labor of large enterprises is very clear, and small enterprises require linux operation and maintenance personnel to be proficient in and use network equipment, linux system, hardware environment, database, information security, software and script development, storage management and use, load balancing and high-availability equipment, servers and application caching mechanisms.

5. Before the general enterprise recruits network engineers, the company's original network already exists, and the network engineers are only responsible for maintaining the existing network and making it stable. So network engineers had better turn to system engineers and system architecture engineers.
