Conclusion

An interface is the fundamental building block of any router with a large variety of possible interface types. Although the Junos OS allows for many different interface types, the general configuration process is consistent across each type. This also helps when it is time to troubleshoot the problem interface. The specifics of the media signals will vary, but the operational commands used are the same. Once a router has all its interfaces, operational routes to remote networks can be configured via routing protocols. We will examine these protocols in subsequent chapters.
