JNCIA
Junos is an entry-level certification in the portfolio of Juniper Networks.
The
certification and the process of preparation is also outstanding. Almost all
materials for preparation are free. Juniper provides a great set of official
materials, videos and even a voucher for everyone who pass a practice test.
The JNCIA

engineers.

You do not need any prerequisites for the exam.
