Junos Intermediate Routing (JIR)

This two-day course provides students with intermediate routing knowledge and configuration examples. The course includes an overview of
protocol-independent routing features, load balancing and filter-based forwarding, OSPF, BGP, IP tunneling, and high availability (HA) features.
Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos OS and monitoring device
operations. This course uses Juniper Networks vSRX Series Services Gateways for the hands-on component, but the lab environment does not
preclude the course from being applicable to other Juniper hardware platforms running the Junos OS. This course is based on Junos OS Release
21.1R1.11.
