This two-day course provides a detailed coverage of IPv6 operations including neighbor discovery, ICMPv6, IPv6 protocol independent routing, OSPFv3, IS-IS, BGP, IPv6 multicast, transition methods, and troubleshooting methodology and commands supported by the Junos operating system (OS).
Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring Junos OS and in monitoring device and IPv6 protocol operations.
This course uses Juniper Networks MX Series Routers for the hands-on component, but the lab environment does not preclude the course from being applicable to other Juniper hardware platforms running Junos OS.
This course is based on Junos OS Release 22.2R1.9.
