JUNOS Enterprise Switching is the only detailed technical book on Juniper Networks' new Ethernet-switching EX product platform. With this book, you'll learn all about the hardware and ASIC design prowess of the EX platform, as well as the JUNOS Software that powers it. Not only is this extremely practical book a useful, hands-on manual to the EX platform, it also makes an excellent study guide for certification exams in the JNTCP enterprise tracks.

The authors have based
JUNOS Enterprise Switching on their own Juniper training practices and programs, as well as the configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting guidelines they created for their bestselling companion book, JUNOS Enterprise Routing. Using a mix of test cases, case studies, use cases, and tangential answers to real-world problems, this book covers:

  • Enterprise switching and virtual LANs (VLANs)
  • The Spanning tree protocol and why it's needed
  • Inter-VLAN routing, including route tables and preferences
  • Routing policy and firewall filters
  • Switching security, such as DHCP snooping
  • Telephony integration, including VLAN voice

    Part of the Juniper Networks Technical Library<™>,
    JUNOS Enterprise Switching provides all-inclusive coverage of the Juniper Networks EX product platform, including architecture and packet flow, management options, user interface options, and complete details on JUNOS switch deployment.

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2013
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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheaper than JEX course notes and better written
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 18, 2015
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.
