Junos MPLS Fundamentals Training in Finland

We can host this training at your preferred location. Contact us!

This two-day course is designed to provide students with a solid foundation on Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).
After introducing concepts such as MPLS forwarding and the structure of the MPLS header, the course will delve into the configuration and operation of the two main label distribution protocols, RSVP and LDP. Special emphasis is given to the central topics of traffic engineering and MPLS traffic protection, including fast reroute, link/node protection, and LDP Loop-Free Alternate.
The concepts are put into practice with a series of in-depth hands-on labs, which will allow participants to gain experience in configuring and monitoring MPLS on Junos OS devices.
This course is based on the Junos OS Release 15.1R2.9.

Students should have intermediate-level networking knowledge and should be familiar with the Junos OS command-line interface (CLI). Students should also attend the Introduction to the Junos Operating System (IJOS), Junos Routing Essentials (JRE), and Junos Intermediate Routing (JIR) courses prior to attending this class.

Intended Audience

This course benefits individuals responsible for configuring and monitoring devices running the Junos OS.

Describe the history and rationale for MPLS, as well as its basic terminology.
Explain the MPLS label operations (push, pop, swap) and the concept of label-switched path (LSP).
Describe the configuration and verification of MPLS forwarding.
Describe the functionalities and operation of RSVP and LDP.
Configure and verify RSVP-signaled and LDP-signaled LSPs.
Select and configure the appropriate label distribution protocol for a given set of requirements.
Describe the default Junos OS MPLS traffic engineering behavior.
Explain the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) extensions used to build the Traffic Engineering Database (TED).
Describe the Constrained Shortest Path First (CSPF) algorithm, its uses, and its path selection process.
Describe administrative groups and how they can be used to influence path selection.
Describe the default traffic protection behavior of RSVP-signaled LSPs.
Explain the use of primary and secondary LSPs.
Describe the operation and configuration of fast reroute.
Describe the operation and configuration of link and node protection.
Describe the operation and configuration of LDP loop-free alternate.
Describe the LSP optimization options.

Junos MPLS Fundamentals Training Course in Finland

Finland is a country located in northern Europe. Helsinki is the capital and largest city of the country. The majority of the people are Finns but there is also a small Lapp population in Lapland, where the country is famous for the Northern Lights. Finland's national languages are Finnish and Swedish.

Known for its vast forests, lakes, and natural beauty, Finland is one of the world's largest producers of forest products, such as paper, pulp, and lumber. One of the world's largest sea fortresses Suomenlinna, Rovaniemi with the "White Nights", dogsled safaris and of course the Northern Lights are what makes Finland so popular for tourists. Finland is one of the best places in the world to see the Northern Lights and attracts millions of tourists during its seasons.

Finland is home to a thriving technology industry and is widely recognized as one of the world's leading technology hubs. Companies such as Nokia and Rovio (creator of the popular game Angry Birds) are based in Finland. Some of the key factors that have contributed to Finland's success in technology include; strong investment in research and development, a highly educated workforce and fundings.

Finland has a strong educational system, and is widely regarded as one of the world's most literate countries. In fact, Finland's literacy rate is one of the highest in the world, and its students consistently perform well in international tests of math and reading ability.

Also, as a pioneer in environmental sustainability, Finland is known for its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and promote clean energy. This Nordic country is also famous for its unique and distinctive cultural heritage, including its traditional folk music and its elaborate traditional costumes.

Helsinki, Finland's capital city, is the country's business center. Helsinki is Finland's largest city, and it is home to many of the country's major corporations and organizations, including many of the country's leading technology firms. The city is also a commercial, trade, and financial center, as well as one of the busiest ports in the Nordic region.
