FAQs

What will you learn in this Juniper OSPF training?

Juniper doesn't have its own Open Shortest Path First protocol that's radically different from any other OSPF, but what you'll learn on this course is the ways in which Juniper equipment manages OSPF differently and how configuring the protocol for optimization on a Juniper network is unique.

Who should take this Juniper OSPF course?

Network engineers who work on Juniper-powered networks are probably the best candidates for this OSPF course. Networking professionals with only a few years of experience could find themselves out of their depth in this course, which covers advanced topics of using and configuring the OSPF protocol on Juniper networks.

Is this training in Juniper OSPF associated with any certifications?

No, this Juniper OSPF training isn't designed to prepare learners for any particular certification or exam. The strength of this relatively short course on how Juniper networks use OSPF is that it only focuses on real-world configurations and use cases of the protocol – there's no unnecessary prep or memorization.

What certification should you consider after taking this course in Juniper OSPF?
