Juniper Advanced Enterprise Routing

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

After successfully completing this course, you should be able to:
• Describe the various OSPF link-state advertisement (LSA) types.
• Explain the flooding of LSAs in an OSPF network.
• Describe the shortest-path-first (SPF) algorithm.
• Describe OSPF area types and operations.
• Configure various OSPF area types.
• Summarize and restrict routes. Identify scenarios requiring routing policy or a specific configuration option.
• Describe basic BGP operation. List common BGP attributes.
• Explain the route selection process for BGP.
• Describe how to alter the route selection process.
• Configure some advanced options for BGP peers.
• Describe various BGP attributes in detail.
• Manipulate BGP attributes using routing policy.
• Describe common routing policies used in the enterprise environment.
• Explain how attribute modifications affect routing decisions.
• Implement a routing policy for inbound and outbound traffic using BGP.
• Describe IP multicast traffic flow.
• Identify the components of IP multicast.
• Explain how IP multicast addressing works.
• Describe the need for reverse path forwarding (RPF) in multicast.
• Explain the role of Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) and describe the available IGMP versions.
• Configure and monitor IGMP.
• Identify common multicast routing protocols.
• Describe rendezvous point (RP) discovery options.
• Configure and monitor Protocol Independent Multicast–Sparse Mode (PIM-SM).
• Configure and monitor RP discovery mechanisms.
• Describe the basic requirements, benefits, and caveats of source-specific multicast (SSM).
• List the address ranges used for SSM.
• Illustrate the role of Internet Group Management Protocol version 3 (IGMPv3) and PIM-SM in an SSM implementation.
• Configure and monitor SSM.
• Identify environments that might require a modified CoS implementation.
• Describe the various CoS components and their respective functions .
• Describe the various CoS components and their respective functions.
• Explain the CoS processing along with CoS defaults on SRX Series Services Gateways devices.
• Describe situations when some CoS features are used in the enterprise.
• Implement some CoS features in an enterprise environment.

This 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, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), class of service (CoS), and multicast is strongly emphasized. 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.
