Day One: Configuring Segment Routing with Junos

Day One: Configuring Segment Routing with Junos



Follow this book’s lab to configure the basics of Segment Routing and then enable advanced traffic protection.


Over the past few years there’s been a lot of buzz in the industry about Segment Routing, and in response Juniper has developed a very comprehensive feature set in the Junos® OS and the NorthStar Controller. This book explains how to configure and understand the operation of Segment Routing in the Junos OS.

 

In Day One: Configuring Segment Routing with Junos, two Senior Engineers distill their professional field experience and knowledge into a lab book well worth following. You’ll learn the different types of segments and how to fine-tune them in various topologies: the first half of the book configures and examines the components that make Segment Routing so attractive, and the second half of the book instructs you on how to configure traffic engineering into the network you built in the first half.



“There has been a lot of interest in Segment Routing from hyperscalers, service providers, and large enterprises alike. This book takes you all the way from the fundamental principles of Segment Routing to advanced topics such as TI-LFA in an easy to follow, clearly explained format. SREs, network designers, and network architects will all make it their go-to reference.” – Bikash Koley, EVP & CTO, Juniper Networks 



“Configuring Segment Routing with Junos is the ideal book to understand and to implement Segment Routing technology in an IP/MPLS network. It describes the basic concepts of the technology as well as some implementation use cases like traffic protection with TI-LFA. The book provides several examples of configuration and operational commands which will definitely help you during your implementation. That is worth reading!” – Stephane Litkowski, Network Architect and Orange Expert, Orange Business Services
