In this comprehensive five-day course, students will receive detailed coverage of OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, and routing policy. Through examples, demonstrations, and hands-on labs, participants will gain practical experience in configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting the Junos operating system and overseeing device and protocol operations. The hands-on component utilizes Juniper Networks vMX Series Routers, ensuring a dynamic learning environment, with applicability to other Juniper hardware platforms running Junos OS. Based on Junos OS Release 23.2, this course provides participants with the latest knowledge and hands-on skills in advanced routing with Juniper devices.
