Technical expertise for critical network infrastructure

Independent consulting for designing, implementing, troubleshooting and improving DNS, DHCP and IP address management infrastructure.

ABOUT DDI CONSULTING

Practical expertise for complex infrastructure

DDI Consulting provides independent technical expertise for organisations that depend on reliable network infrastructure.

DNS and DHCP are fundamental services, but they can become surprisingly complex as environments grow, technologies change and infrastructure is migrated. We help organisations design, troubleshoot and improve these critical services.

Our approach is practical and technically focused: understand the problem, identify the underlying cause and develop a solution that is reliable, maintainable and appropriate for the environment.

TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE

Solving problems at protocol level

Some infrastructure problems cannot be solved by simply changing a configuration setting.

DDI Consulting takes a detailed technical approach when necessary — examining protocols, packet exchanges, configuration, software behaviour and system architecture to identify what is actually happening.

The objective is not just to make a problem disappear, but to understand its cause and provide a solution that can be operated and maintained.

DNS infrastructure Authoritative and recursive services
DHCP infrastructure Servers, relays and client behaviour
Linux systems Server infrastructure and operational tooling
Network protocols Packet-level analysis and troubleshooting
