Benefits of JNCIE-DC Certification
The JNCIE-DC Certification develops expert-level skills for building and operating both controllerless and Apstra-managed data centers. Its six-hour practical exam requires candidates to configure a network containing Apstra, vMX, vJunos-switch, and vQFX Series devices.
Through JNCIE-DC Certification preparation, you learn how to:
- Build and troubleshoot Layer 3 IP fabrics
- Control route advertisements with routing policies
- Use available fabric links for traffic forwarding
- Manage fabric configurations through Juniper Apstra
- Create and apply custom Apstra tags
- Deploy EBGP- and IBGP-signalled EVPN-VXLAN overlays
- Connect multihomed and single-homed endpoints
- Create separate Layer 2 and Layer 3 tenant environments
- Enable routing between Layer 3 tenants
- Configure and optimize multicast communication
- Build DCI solutions using EVPN Type 2 or Type 5 routes
- Implement seamless VXLAN-to-VXLAN stitching
- Protect data center infrastructure and edge devices
- Restrict access from unauthorized protocols and networks
- Monitor excessive traffic and spanning-tree events
- Configure Class of Service for server traffic
- Use Apstra probes to monitor critical services
- Create custom Apstra configlets
- Configure BFD, logging, telemetry, and SNMP monitoring
These capabilities demonstrate your ability to combine fabric routing, EVPN-VXLAN, DCI, security, traffic management, and operational monitoring within a complete data center environment.
