We offer this course in co-operation with our partner Westcon Security. Westcon Security is Juniper Networks Authorized Education Center.

This course focuses on installation, configuration, troubleshooting, and operational analysis of the WAN Acceleration (WX) and WAN Acceleration Cache platforms. It covers an overview of WX platform concepts and then moves on to initial installation using Quick Setup. Students will use the WebView graphical user interface to configure and manage the main features of the WX platform: compression (using Molecular Sequence Reduction and Network Sequence Caching), Packet Flow Acceleration (TCP application acceleration), Application Flow Acceleration (which speeds up CIFS, Microsoft Exchange, and HTTP traffic), and implementation of quality-of-service policies. In the labs, students configure and test all these features.
