JUNOS Enterprise Switching: A Practical Guide to JUNOS Switches and Certification

I have both the Enterprise Routing and Enterprise Switching books.They are both great resources.They have helped me initially grasp concepts terms and syntax. And they continue to be valuable references.The chapters are developed logically, and the examples provided are very helpful.And I seldom travel without it now, as it is loaded on my Kindle. Stuck in an airport, or making a long flight, it's easy to pull out my Kindle, listen to some music AND (re-)read a chapter or two to further clarify a topic.For me, this is not a "read it once" text. There's always a "little more" to be mined.

Not in the same league as Cisco Press Books. I'm not referring to Cisco vs Juniper but the writing and information style. I went from a Cisco shop to a Juniper shop. And before that I was Desktop Support moving into Networking. Using the Cisco Press Books to make my way from Desktop Support world to Cisco Networking world, gave me better direction and structure than this "JUNOS Enterprise Switching" book is doing to get me from Cisco Networking world to Juniper Networking world. I also purchased "JUNOS Enterprise Routing" & "Juniper Networks Warrior", I'm not impressed by either of those. This is not a Cisco vs Juniper thing. The truth of the matter is, Juniper is a better networking system than Cisco in my opinion. I hope Juniper books get to the same level as Cisco Press books. Maybe Juniper needs a Juniper Press division.

This is one of those "page turner" technical books, the authors did a great job to educate you in an entertaining manner. We were just introduced to Juniper (we are a Cisco shop primarily), and this is an excellent if not "must read" for any admins getting Juniper gear. Even though it focuses on switching, given that the OS is Junos, it can do what routers can too, which means the skills learned can be used on other Juniper equipment. Definitely a buy.

Been working on Cisco products all my life and recently started working for a shop that is 75% Juniper. This has been great for getting me up to speed!

hopefully I'll pass my next test!! But seriously, I work with lots of Juniper switches. These don't cover QFX switches, but the principles are good.

Have 2 ex4200s supporting a native LAN product. Was able to learn enough from this book to config RVI's, policier's, and apply some QOS. thank you!

This is a well written book that discusses the Juniper switching line. It does a good job describing how they work and how to configure and troubleshoot them. It is a must have for anyone working on Juniper Switches.

With this book you will understand how juniper hardware is and how junos operates.Highly recommended either if you want to get juniper certification or administer your switchs.

I bought this because Juniper wanted an additional £50 for printed documentation in a JunOS course I attended recently, which frankly is a bit of a cheek, and this had everything that the course documentation seemed to have, and more.It provides some excellent resources on the EX platform, and in particular stacking and unstacking, which can be a bit of a nightmare.In all, very worthwhile.

it is an ok book i guess, if you ignore the 'sarcasm' of the author,

Product arrived in a good packaging and I have already started to read it. It is very very useful for the purpose that has been purchased.

Very informative book for EX series switches specially for beginners

It is good !
