Junos OS

The book I read to research this post was Junos OS For Dummies by Michael Bushong et al which is an excellent book which I bought from kindle. This book tells you all about Junos OS and even has a part dealing with 2 contrasting devices. It's mainly used on big computer networks and is an operating system which is specifically used to run a network. Some of these items like switches can be rack based and weigh 350 pounds so you need to know what you are doing. It has a smaller attack surface than the Windows operating system & the vast majority of viruses can't attack it. There are other networking operating systems like Cisco IOS but Junos OS is gaining in popularity. This operating system is more text based than Windows you use a lot of textual shortcuts to set things up. To go to the next page you fill the text box with asterisks. It's compatible with protocols like TCP/IP & IPV4. A device will normally have an RJ-45 connector on a cable labelled console that connects to a computer to set it up. There is a free download called Junos OS Pulse which is a version you can use on a workstation. Administrators are called Super Users when you are stting a device up. This is something I'd like to learn more about and I have quite a few books on Junos OS so I'll probably review more books on this subject.
