Junos Layer 2 VPNs

This three-day, advanced-level course provides students with the detailed knowledge required to design, configure, and troubleshoot every flavor of Layer 2 VPN available within Junos. The course begins with a refresher of the concepts behind VPNs and MPLS. The course then introduces each type of Layer 2 VPN in turn, such as BGP-signaled and LDP-signaled pseudowires, circuit cross-connect (CCC), VPLS, and EVPN. We’ve included use cases for each technology, along with elements of consideration when choosing an appropriate solution, and extensive clarification of technical terms that have multiple meanings. After this introduction, the course dives deep into each individual technology, offering extensive control plane and data plane explanations of how the VPN is built and maintained. After viewing a simple configuration, the student will learn how to monitor and troubleshoot the VPN, before moving on to some more advanced features of each VPN type. The course is based on Junos 24.2R1.15. This course is also available On-Demand.
