Juniper Advanced Enterprise Routing

Overview

This course benefits individuals responsible for configuring and monitoring devices running the Junos OS.

This three-day course is designed to provide students with the tools required for implementing, monitoring, and troubleshooting Layer 3 components in an enterprise network. Detailed coverage of OSPF,~BGP, class of service (CoS), and multicast is strongly emphasised. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos operating system and~in monitoring device and protocol operations.

Prerequisites

Students should have basic networking knowledge and an understanding of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model and the TCP/IP protocol suite. Students should also have working experience with basic routing principles. Students should also attend the Introduction to the Junos Operating System (IJOS), Junos Routing Essentials (JRE), and Junos Intermediate Routing (JIR) courses prior to attending this class.

Course Outline.
