Introduction to Juniper Networks Wireless LANs (IJWL)
Length: Four days
Course Overview
This is a four-day technical training course on the Juniper Networks Wireless LAN Services (WLS) system. The course includes an overview of the full range of HW and SW products, their capabilities and features. The course describes the WLS system architecture and a project framework for planning a WLS system deployment. The course covers the RF planning capabilities of the RingMaster SW and basic MX (AP Controller) configuration through the CLI. The course then moves on to describe system and service configuration using RingMaster. The course describes a secure, enterprise-grade employee service in detail and introduces other service options (Web Portal login, voice, open access). Integration issues with the back-end AAA, DNS and DHCP servers are examined and the monitoring, management and reporting capabilities of the RingMaster SW are described. The course uses a combination of lecture as well as practical and group exercises to ensure a high level of hands-on experience with the Juniper Networks WLS system components.
The course is based on the Juniper Networks WLS system v7.4 SW release.
Objectives
After successfully completing this course, you should be able to:
- Identify the various HW and SW components of the WLS system and understand the system capabilities and architecture.
- Effectively use the RingMaster management console to plan, deploy, configure, manage, monitor and report on a WLS system.
- Understand the requirements for a secure, Enterprise-grade Wireless LAN system and configure secure services.
- Work with Domains and Clusters to ensure campus-wide seamless roaming on the wireless LAN and provide industry-leading system resilience.
- Effectively troubleshoot a WLS system deployment and user connectivity to the wireless LAN segment.
- Appreciate how to scale the management of the system using the RingMaster console and its Policy configuration capabilities.
- Navigate the CLI and be familiar without some important command line utilities .
- Understand integration issues with the corporate AAA, DHCP and DNS environments.
