I'm a old cisco head that recently had to do a crash course on junos. You're 99% on point. I will mention however that the question mark works the same on Junos, and is in fact way more useful in junos. For example, it'll list access list names and such. I never used tab on either OS.
Been working with both Juniper and Cisco for many years, and I can honestly say that I prefer Juniper devices any day over Cisco. I have to admit however that the amount of resources available to Cisco is a huge deal if you are just starting your networking venture.
Great video. Just a comment: - Enterprise marketing: Juniper is the leader of the leaders at Wired & Wireless Magic Quadrant by Garter for the last 3 years. It’s reflect of the strategy of the company at Enterprise market in the last years. - GUI management: Juniper has the Mist Cloud, you can manage your Full Stack (Wi-Fi, Wired, SD-WAN) through the Mist Cloud. - Learning: as you mentioned, Juniper has the Learning Portal that allows everyone to learn for free and get a voucher of 75% to take a PearsonVUE exams.
I agree that they are definitely upping their game, the free training is a recent development. you used to have to pay about $3200 to sign up for their official training, and that was as recently as january of last year when I was a Juniper Academy Instructor, so it's nice that they have softened on the pricing and ease of access.
@@TheeGreyGadgets I used their free training about 10 years ago so I don't think that is a new development.... I had my CCNP for 9 years and multiple Juniper Certs for both Enterprise and DC for even longer. When it comes to automations I couldn't ask for better than wheat Juniper has to offer. You can certify up to JNCIS in almost every track they have based on their free training resources, and labs. and once you complete the training and practice tests the real tests are discounted. If I were to have to start over I would definitely start with the Juniper training resources and discounted Certs.
I have seen that juniper switches like EX4300 have a rather fragile hardware or maybe we received a bad batch of product idk. I was experimenting with one of the switches and after a couple of hard reboots the switch went bad . But since their cost is lesser compared to cisco switches maybe we should not complain . but i love the junos its better than ios to be frank
I can’t comment as to which is objectively better because my knowledge with Juniper eclipses that of Cisco. I do like the Junos CLI mindset. Some observations: The Good Tab works for auto complete as well as space. It functions like a modern Unix shell; if the command is unambiguous it will auto-complete. If it is ambiguous then a list of possible completions is displayed. Even better than commit and rollback is commit confirmed. Set a timer within which to confirm the new active configuration before automatically reverting to the previous one. This has saved my hide when altering the config of an SRX over a VPN. Even if I mess up, the whole thing will just recover after a short wait. The Bad JWeb the web based configuration tool on Juniper devices is barely functional. Considering how good the CLI is, JWeb is frankly embarrassing. The Ugly Shipping hardware with so severely limited internal storage that you can't update the OS without either connecting external storage, or disabling features designed to help if stuff goes wrong - recovery partitions, and uodate copies.
I agree, both Junos and IOS use CLI, but PaloAlto was mainly made to use the web interface GUI, it's very hard for me to remember all the minus and tabs in Palo but very easy to remember the CLI commands.

Juniper all the way for me.

I like these videos but I find the background music annoying
Yeah needs better tunes
WELL?
I have been in industry for over 20 year, I love both Cisco and Juniper and I hate Palo Alto piece of junk with poor support team.
I agree, both Junos and IOS use CLI, but PaloAlto was mainly made to use the web interface GUI, it's very hard for me to remember all the minus and tabs in Palo but very easy to remember the CLI commands.
Great video. I am sure Juniper has it! 😀
i got my foot on both platforms and love them both almost equally. however none of them are King
IOS is a stupid command line interpreter. JUNOS in contrast acts like a Unix service that is configured by a file.
Junos is a lot more impressive than IOS
Juniper doesn’t have the range Cisco does, nothing in the industrial side
MIKROTIK IS THE KING 😃
of getting hacked
None of them 👑 ❤🇵🇰
You are in which world....bro...sleeping....
