Customer Reviews

Excellent review of JUNOS and great ref on integrated ISIS

As others have pointed out you can read the Juniper technical publications and IETF drafts and RFCs instead of this book. I find that opinion interesting since almost ALL technical books dealing with IP technology one could say the same and they all heavily borrow from the actual RFCs/drafts.My point is, this book is no different than other books in it's field meaning you could read a volume of books/publications that has 10,000's of pages stacked on your floor or you could get a condensed version of all that by reading The complete ref for Juniper Networks Routers.What you won't get in the IETF drafts/RFC's and Juniper technical publications is the step by step how-to reference on setting up the various configs using JUNOS along with a description of what is occurring. You also are not sickened with any idiotic marketing hype that is always in Cisco IOS books which makes one wonder who wrote them (marketing or an actual engineer). Pretty much they give you a straightforward guide on how to setup JUNOS without a bunch of fluff.It's a great reference on JUNOS overall and probably the BEST (far better than Doyle's IOS chapter on ISIS) reference on integrated ISIS outside of reading the ISO specs (which can be annoying to read compared to an RFC!!!).

a must have for all noc's!!!

an excellent book for an indepth understanding of routing protocols with emphasis on bgp & mpls, basically stuff from an isp's prespective. don't worry too much on typo's and spelling mistakes(found only in chapter 6), this book is techincally sound overall.gives a lot of references to rfc's, has a lot of examples & real life scenario's....read it to believe it

A reference guide that Juniper junior operators must have

From system architecture to system processes, from basic routing protocol to MPLS VPN, and the protocol theory to case-study.This book contains all the junior Juniper system administrator needs, especially who was familiar with the Cisco devices.Easy reading and no vendor ads ! Unlike other Cisco technical books, it just discribe the routing protocol theory, and tell you what a Juniper can do. The Cisco books always tell you what a Cisco product can do, but never tell you what is RFC compatible devices must have, and what portion is the Cisco enhanced feature. If you hate to read all the Juniper's manuals, documents & white papers. Another choice is to buy a reference book like this.

It is very nice book!

If you want to know all about Juniper's routers you should read this book.
