Dive into Part 2 of our Mastering IS-IS series to explore how adjacencies form, the role of the DIS on broadcast links, and the state transitions that govern IS-IS neighbor relationships. Includes Juniper examples, troubleshooting tips, and visuals.

Domain Name System (DNS), the unsung hero.

Deconstruct IS-IS foundations: origins, Layer 2 operation, NSAP addressing, and hierarchy. Explore TLVs and practical Juniper configurations. A technical deep dive into why IS-IS is crucial for scalable, robust networks, setting the stage for mastering this powerful routing protocol.

As a network engineer or architect, you're used to thinking in terms of packets, ports, topologies, and protocols. Your world is often defined by the intricate dance of data, the robust architecture of hardware, and the precise syntax of configurations. But what if a key to elevating your

Give your network automation a brain boost! 🧠 LangChain + Netmiko = an agent that understands natural language requests for device data.

For years, we’ve built and maintained networks – complex systems of boxes and protocols ensuring packets flow reliably. But in today's world of distributed applications, multi-cloud deployments, and relentless digital transformation, that’s no longer enough. The network is the platform; it’s the critical path for business

At its core, BGP is about establishing and maintaining peering relationships between routers. Before any routing information is exchanged, both routers must progress through a defined sequence of connection states, managed by the BGP state machine.

The Internet, in its magnificent global sprawl, is fundamentally a network of networks. Unlike the neatly contained domains governed by Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) such as OSPF or EIGRP, the vast inter-domain landscape requires a routing protocol designed for entirely different challenges. Enter the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)—the undisputed

In the world of computer networking, devices must resolve logical addresses to physical ones before they can communicate on a local segment. While we often think in terms of IP addresses (Layer 3), actual data transmission on Ethernet networks depends on MAC addresses (Layer 2). That’s where Address Resolution
