If you are deploying or managing JUNOS routers in a enterprise network, this is THE book to have. It does not cover service provider topics such as MPLS, ISIS, or advanced BGP. There are plenty of other books that do. Harry and Doug do an excellent job of filling in the gap that was missing. This book explains how complex topics such as IPSec VPNs, NAT/PAT, Stateful Firewall, BGP policy, IGP migration, etc. all work in JUNOS.

Not all Juniper books are created equal and this one certainly tops my list.

This guy should win a award for his wit and apparent knowledge exhibited in each chapter. This book helped me TREMENDOUSLY. Well written and easy to understand...AND kept my attention. They put quizzes at the end of each chapter to make sure you 'got it'. This book is a definate must if you use Juniper.

I'd pay money to hear this guy teach a class on this!

Many tech books put you to sleep within a few pages, but not this one. This book is extremely readable. The authors have a very engaging writing style, and the talent for teaching shines through. This book presents difficult concepts in an easy-to-understand way, and throws in enough humor to make sure you were really paying attention. This book is a valuable every-day reference guide, as well as a roadmap for learning JUNOS and going on to tackle the JNCIE exam.

I had the pleasure of attending a course given by Doug Marschke, and I can say his classes were every bit as wonderful as the book. Doug knows this material inside and out, and he has the teaching skills to be able to share his immense knowledge.

tHE PRODUCT IS SO NICE AND IS RECOMANDABLE FOR ANY ONE WHO WANT TO DEAL WITH A NETWORKING USING jUNIPER EVEN CISCO.

If you work for a service provider, then this book is useless for you. This book has no coverage of MPLS and IPV6 or Layer 2 services such as Metro ethernet/VPLS or pseudowire services etc.

The BGP coverage is basic to medium and is not enough for a service provider environment.

I am not sure who will use juniper router to implement NAT or IPSec tunnel. However, this book does cover such topics as NAT/IPSec, Basic multicast etc.
