Exams:   JPR-043
Certification:   JNCIE-ENT

 

Target Audience

At the pinnacle of the Enterprise Routing and Switching certification track is the 1-day JNCIE-ENT practical exam. This exam is designed to validate the networking professionals’ ability to deploy, configure, manage and troubleshoot Junos-based enterprise routing and switching platforms. Throughout this 8-hour practical exam, candidates will build an enterprise network infrastructure consisting of multiple routers and switching devices. Successful candidates will perform system configuration on all devices, configure protocols and features like IPV6 ,OSPF V2 , OSPF V3, BGP, MSDP, PIM, SSM, RSTP,LLDP, 802.1x , CoS, routing policies.
