Overview
How to Implement OSPF in corporate as well as ISP environment, Core OSPF Concepts: Router ID, Neighbour states, DR elections, OSPF tables, Route calculations, LSA Types, Area types, Route redistribution, Route Filtering, Route Summarization, and Virtual Links, Basics of Junos software for OSPF implementation, OSPF maintenance; logging, and troubleshooting, Exercises, Quizzes to re-enforce the concepts learned
Anyone interested in learning about OSPF on Junos
Basic understanding of networking concepts
A complete course with 4 hours of Video content, 1 assignment and 5 Quizzes.
IF YOU HAVE TIME FOR ONE COURSE, CHOSE THIS COURSE, It will build a strong foundation and give you enough practice to master the concepts learned.
The Course is divided into following sections:
OSPF Basics:
What is OSPF, how it discover neighbours and form adjacency. How it builds its database and how it calculate best path.
How a Router ID is selected - what is it's role in OSPF Database.
What is DR & BDR - which network types require them and how they are elected and when.
What are LSA types - detailed discussion analysis using our network topology
Multi Area OSPF:
Multi area OSPF design, how area's connect together and why they connect that way!
What are OSPF Area types - what each area type do.
OSPF Virtual Links
Advanced (optional) Configurations:
OSPF Authentication
Route Filtering - Inter Area and External Routes
Route Redistribution - Static, Direct (connected), BGP
Route Summarization - internal and external routes
Logging and troubleshooting
We will follow a Network topology through out this course to practice each every concept we go through.

I'm a network engineer with over 18 years of experience in enterprise and service provider environments, and I hold a CCIE Service Provider certification (#48102, Emeritus). About a decade ago, I began shifting toward automation, using Python to move away from manual CLI work. Today, I primarily interact with network devices through APIs and build automation tools using Python and Django. I’ve also developed in Java, but my current work focuses on full-stack solutions using Python and Django. In my spare time, I create tools for my day to day needs, like I have developed goal tracker using Django, PostgreSQL, and Docker - where I can define my long term goals, divide them into objectives, and assign them tasks per Sprint, I have also connected it to my Google Calendar so when I define my Sprint it gets synced up to my calendar.
? I’m currently working on CICD pipelines for Networks. Idea is to build a container based lab that can take a topology file and build lab, use my existing gns3-ansible container to build configurations and then on each configuration change test it on the created lab.
? Working on my book on full stack network automation using Python, Django, and MySQL.
