Network Mergers and Migrations : Junos Design and Implementation

This book provides a complete reference to network mergers andmigrations using the Junos operating system Network Mergers and Migrations provides readers with acomprehensive guide for network migration activities by detailing avariety of internetworking case studies. Both enterprise andservice provider scenarios are examined based on the experience andexpertise of two senior Juniper Networks engineers. From MPLS Layer3 VPN migration approaches to comprehensive network protocolconsolidation and integration, each case study covers planning,design and implementation, as well as discussing alternatives andleveraging additional specific services and Junos resources, toensure successful completion at each migration phase. These casestudies are complemented with solid state-of-the-art protocolanalysis and with practical application notes focused on specificfunctionalities. Readers are shown, not told, how to accomplish oneof the more critical tasks of modern day networking mergingtwo or more networks or migrating one into the other. This is abook that truly describes the challenges that involve networks inmodern environments, in both enterprise and service providermilieus. Key Features: * Provides an invaluable reference for engineers needing toupgrade networks, consolidate activities, or deploy new features orservices. * Contains case studies and application notes of networkmigrations, moving well beyond theoretical technologydescriptions. * Offers advanced techniques from engineers who have planned,designed, and accomplished complicated internetwork migrations,offering lessons learned from their success stories and pitfallsituations. * Covers specific Junos resources for routing tables, link-stateinterior gateway protocols, BGP, MPLS label distribution protocols,MPLS Layer 3 VPN and many more Junos related features andfunctionalities Network Mergers and Migrations will be of immenseinterest to network engineers, network designers, architects, andoperators, as well as network planners and consultants. Networkingengineering students will discover a treasure trove of real-worldscenarios and solutions and the book is additional recommendedreading for students pursuing Juniper Networks TechnicalCertification Programs.
