Course Overview
TopThis three-day course provides students with the foundational knowledge required to work with the Junos operating system and to configure Junos security devices.
The course provides a brief overview of the Juniper security products and discusses the key architectural components of the Junos software.
Key topics include UI options with a heavy focus on CLI, configuration tasks typically associated with the initial setup of devices, interface configuration basics with configuration examples, secondary system configuration, and the basics of operational monitoring and maintenance of Junos Security devices.
The course then delves into foundational knowledge of security objects, security policies, and configuration examples including types of security objects, security policies, security services NAT, site-to-site IPsec VPN, and Juniper Secure Connect VPN.
Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring Junos OS and monitoring basic device operations on the SRX device.
This course is based on Junos OS Release 21.2R1.10.
