Training and Certification

Hello,

I'm making my way through the Open Learning - Junos, Associate course in the learning portal.

I've gotten to the end of module 3 which has a lab component. The instructions and demo videos show a vLabs environment with some setup steps that are very specific to that environment (like typing 'lab1' in the virtual PC's terminal to configure the router for the scenario).

Nowhere can I find a link or a template to use in vLabs. In the course overview, there's a lab column that none of the units have checked.

Am I missing something, do I need to pay for the vLabs version of the course or does this feature just not work?

I do have access to some SRXs so I can feasibly setup a lab at my bench, but I would prefer to us the environments and scenarios the courses are referencing.

Cheers in advance

Hi William...thanks for the question, and for participating in Open Learning. In general, Open Learning does not include the hands-on lab component. If you want to prepare for the JNCIA-Junos certification with the labs, you would need to purchase the On-Demand version of the Introduction to the Junos Operating System course. That said, you can visit vLabs (https://jlabs.juniper.net/vlabs/) to test out many lab scenarios. vlabs is free of charge.

Best regards,

Lawrence

Thanks for the clarification, Lawrence.

I have also noticed the course specifies virtual labs aren't included.

I had a quick look at the vLabs scenarios and I'm sure I'll be referring back to them for examples.
