Why we read it this way (10)
The posting lists '3+ years of supporting Cisco networking equipment' as a hard requirement, with CCNA noted as a 'big plus' — CCNA is treated as preferred accordingly.
Network routing protocols (Static routes, OSPF) and knowledge of GRE/IPsec tunnels appear in the required Skills and Requirements section and are treated as hard gates.
Specific Network Encryption Devices called out include KG-250, KG-250x, IPS-250x, and KG-175 — these are listed as required knowledge.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (VoIP) and RMF are listed with 'Familiarization with' language, indicating a lower bar; treated as preferred.
3+ years of systems administration experience is explicitly marked 'preferred' in the posting.
Partner and Allied nation exercise experience is explicitly marked 'preferred'.
An active US Passport (or ability to obtain one) is a hard requirement but is not a technology skill and is captured here as a note.
The alt SOC (15-1212) is noted because the role involves security-relevant infrastructure (encryption devices, RMF, TS/SCI environment), though the primary day-to-day work is network/systems administration and sustainment.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express.
Requires a TS/SCI clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
