Junos Security (JSEC)

Course Outline

This three-day course covers the configuration operation and implementation of SRX Series Services Gateways in a typical network environment. Key topics within this course include security technologies such as security zones security policies intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) Network Address Translation (NAT) and high availability clusters as well as details pertaining to basic implementation configuration and management.

Through demonstrations and hands-on labs students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos OS and monitoring device operations. This course uses Juniper Networks SRX Series Services Gateways for the hands-on component but the lab environment does not preclude the course from being applicable to other Juniper hardware platforms running the Junos OS.

Prerequisites & Audience

Students should have basic networking knowledge and an understanding of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model and the TCP/IP protocol suite. Students should also attend the Introduction to the Junos Operating System (WGAC-JUN-IJOS) course and the Junos Routing Essentials (WGAC-JUN-JRE) course or have equivalent experience prior to attending this class.
