So to answer your original question, yes! So what do you have to study. Well you might want to know how to set up simple label switching. This includes P and PE. You might also want to setup VPNs using OSPF and IS-IS as the transit IGP. You might also want to set it up using MP-BGP.
Also play with label stacking. You will want to setup both frame mode and cell mode and inter-mix the two. You might try MPLS-TE over OSPF and IS-IS single and multi-area. You might want to also play around with LSP leaking into the IGP. This will change you IGP database and create short cuts. I do not think you will see any Layer 2 MPLS technologies, since the web page says 12.1 or lower code. So no EoMPLS or AToM or QinQ. Since the C&S covers QOS/Multicast/MPLS/Advanced BGP and IS-IS and other topics, I would think it represents a fairly current offering from most Service Providers today. The R&S should have MPLS, although the most Enterprises are not deploying MPLS like SPs are. Are they a slowly adopting it! As far as the Juniper exam. If you look at which is recognized by the people that hire us poor engineers, most now know what a CCIE is, hmmmmm, not sure about JNCIE or whatever it is! Also, how many non-SP companies have Juniper in their networks-very few!
