Juniper Installation Guides, Books, and Training

Juniper provides installation guides, online training on installation, and books to help you get Junos based products up and running.

To find installation guides, go to Technical Documentation, navigate to your specific device, and click the Install tab. These guides provide useful information and valuable tips for safely installing your new hardware.

If you want to download a guide for use onsite, you can find a downloadable pdf file in the right-hand navigation in the “download” section on many of the device pages. For a few of the products, the installation steps are covered in the product's hardware guide.

Additionally, online training on installation is available for many products. In the Delivery Modality drop-down box, select eLearning, change nothing else, and press Enter. Your search will find all the install courses, as well as other useful online training.

These self-paced courses describe pre-installation considerations and the installation process and also include detailed demonstrations. Because the Juniper course listing is now large, it’s a bit harder to find these valuable resources than it used to be. Visit.

Juniper publishes a series of books focused on helping you to get your network up and running. These “Day One” books give you just what you need to get started on a new project.

Many focus on migration topics, such as a book written specifically to help in migrating your network from the EIGRP routing protocol to the OSPF routing protocol. You can view the latest available titles and download them for free at.

Juniper publishes additional titles on a wide variety of networking and security topics.
