This three-day course is designed to provide students with the knowledge required to work with the Juniper Contrail Service Orchestration solution.

Students will gain in-depth knowledge of how to use Contrail Service Orchestration (CSO) and SRX Series devices to instantiate SD-WAN, standalone NGFW, and brownfield NGFW deployments of the Juniper Networks solution.

Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience with features of each of these deployments.

This course is updated on a monthly cadence, so that the course reflects the latest CSO release.

The SD-WAN with Contrail Service Orchestration (SD-CSO) course is an advanced level course.
