1st paragraph

Page 34 Figure 1-10 shows 6 bytes padding at IP layer. Text on 1st paragraph of page 35 describes 4 bytes of padding at the IP layer.

6 not equal to 4. Which is correct?

"[...] it's a safe bet that 00:0b:5f:c3:cc:81 belongs to Host1 and 00:10:7b:3a:02:ea belongs to Vodkila."

00:10:7b:3a:02:ea does not belong to Vodkila, but to Host1 instead.
00:0b:5f:c3:cc:81 has also a Cisco vendor code and cannot belong to Vodkila (if not manually changed).

"The chassis MAC at Vodkila indeed matches one of the two addresses learned on Rum's ge-0/0/0 interface." is wrong unless the ethernet switching table includes 00:1f:12:3d:b4:c0 or 00:1f:12:3d:b4:80.

last paragraph, last page line

Where it says "Three of the bits are used to indicate the port role", I think it should be "Two of the bits are used to indicate the port role".

Where it says "Figure 6-25", I think it should be "Figure 6-26", and where it says "Figure 6-26", I think it should be "Figure 6-27".

below first config example

The description of the "is-fragment" is wrong regarding the EX series.
For most of Juniper devices the from option of the firewall give you two possibilities to match regarding the packet fragmentation:

# set firewall family inet filter test term 1 from ?
<...>
first-fragment Match if packet is the first fragment
is-fragment Match if packet is a fragment
<...>

For this devices your explanation of the "is-fragment" is correct.
but this is not the case regarding the EX

On EX there is no option "first-fragment" and "is-fragment" matches the first and all next fragments.

Here I tested on EX4200 running 11.1R6.4

the filter rules of the loopback filter scase study

The filter terms for ssh and snmp can not be correct.

You will almost never see ssh traffic both come from and to the ssh port. The source-port ssh should be removed.

For term snmp it should be destination-port [ snmp snmptrap ], not source-port.

3rd paragraph

The configuration for applying the voice VLAN to an interface is shown in the book as:

lab@Ethanol> show configuration interfaces ge-0/0/0
unit 0 {
family ethernet-switching {
vlan {
members voice;
}
}

When configuring a voice vlan, you do as the book previously explains, by a voice vlan to an interface under [ edit ethernet-switching-options voip interface ], but the member vlan configured via [ edit interface family ethernet-switching vlan ] should be the DATA vlan, otherwise tagged and untagged frames would not be isolated.... voiding the point of this entire section of the book.

Configuration should read something like:

lab@Ethanol> show configuration interfaces ge-0/0/0
unit 0 {
family ethernet-switching {
vlan {
members DATA;
}
}

Descriptions to the config should be modified accordingly. This discrepency is confirmed in the application note "Deploying IP Telephony with EX Series Switches" published by Juniper Networks: http://forums.juniper.net/jnet/attachments/jnet/switch/8009/1/deploying%20IP%20Telephony%20with%20EX-en.pdf


Configuration in book also does not show the interface being placed int "port-mode access" which should be added for clarity.

Above Fig. 11-4, it is stated that 'interfaces ge-0/0/3, ge-0/0/8 and ge-0/0/9 are all part of the bundle on AE0'.
However in Fig 11-4 itself it is is ge-0/0/5 on brandy instead of ge-0/0/3 and on ethanol it is ge-0/0/2 instead of ge-0/0/3.

At the bottom of the same page then ge-0/0/2 is shown as part of the bundle (which would correspond to ethanol from the figure).

I think, the text above the figure, the figure itself and the config example below should all be logically alligned.

Cheers,
Kai
