# Network DevOps Skill

Use this skill for network performance optimization and infrastructure debugging:

## When to Use

- **Latency optimization**: Reducing network latency, identifying bottlenecks in request paths
- **Packet-level debugging**: Deep inspection of network traffic, protocol analysis
- **Load balancing**: Designing and tuning load balancers for high throughput
- **Kernel network tuning**: TCP/IP stack optimization, buffer sizes, congestion control
- **Network monitoring**: Setting up observability for network performance

## Core Capabilities

1. **Latency profiling**: Identify where time is spent in network requests (DNS, TCP handshake, TLS, transfer)
2. **Protocol optimization**: HTTP/2 vs HTTP/3, TCP tuning, connection pooling strategies
3. **Packet analysis**: Use tcpdump, Wireshark for deep packet inspection
4. **Infrastructure tuning**: Kernel parameters, NIC settings, queuing disciplines
5. **Load balancer selection**: L4 vs L7, algorithms (round-robin, least-conn, consistent hashing)

## Progressive Disclosure

- [latency-optimization.md](./latency-optimization.md) - Latency debugging techniques, profiling tools
- [packet-analysis.md](./packet-analysis.md) - Packet capture, protocol analysis, common issues

## Not For

- Basic networking concepts (already covered)
- Simple curl/wget usage
- Generic HTTP client debugging
