It's possible that someone somewhere needs to know this.
We all know that the configuration on a Junos box is very hierarchical. Sometimes it doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it’s all a pretty cascade of code. One of the big messes that I’ve found is the VPN configuration hierarchy; there are way more items to configure than on an IOS device. To reinforce the stpes in my head, I thought I’d get some of the pieces into a post.
Man, time is hard to come by of late. I’ve had so little time to rest that’s it’s hard to get my thoughts together. It’s a good thing in this case, though, since it’s my fantastic job that’s taking all my time. It’s great to see new network and learn their internals…especially when they were […]

This week we have a guest post from CJ Infantino. He is currently writes on convergingontheedge.com. You can find him hanging out on Google Plus as CJ Infantino or follow him @cjinfantino on twitter. ————————————- The other day I was adding VLANs to the the allowed list on the core routers at work. It was […]
I was studying via Google+ Hangout the other day with CJ and Rob, and one of the topics that came up was the idea of OSPFv2 advertising all loopbacks as 32-bit no matter what the configured mask is. I rarely use loopbacks outside of a lab and had no idea, so I set up a quick lab to see for myself. Sure enough! That’s exactly what I saw.
I’ve spent the last month or so with my nose down in a book and my mouse in a Google+ Hangout window studying my rear off for the CCIE R&S Written. Too bad I didn’t pass it.
