JUNOS : Install Software via CLI from Junos software copied to USB stick

Follow these steps to install the software via the CLI from a USB stick:

1. Download the Junos upgrade file to the USB stick. 
   
2. Locate the USB device ID that Junos is associating to the USB stick:
   

   user@srx> start shell
user@srx% ls /dev/
   

3. Insert the USB device into the USB slot.  For example, slot 0 would return the following:
   

   root# umass0: USB USBFlashDrive, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <USB USBFlashDrive 0100> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device
da0: 1.000MB/s transfers
da0: 980MB (2007040 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 980C)

   Run the following command
   
   user@srx% ls /dev/
   
   Locate difference in outputs to locate drive label. (It will usually be da#s1, i.e. da0s1)
   

4. Create a mount directory:
   

   user@srx% mkdir /tmp/usb

5. Mount the USB to the directory:
   

   user@srx% mount -t msdosfs /dev/<drivelabel, e.g. #da0s1> /tmp/usb

   Example:
   user@srx% mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /tmp/usb (there is a space between the label name and /tmp)
   
   Verify that the USB is mounted to the device:
   root@% pwd
/cf/root
root@% cd /var/tmp/usb/
root@% pwd
/cf/var/tmp/usb
root@% ls
junos-jsr-11.4R5.7-export.tgz


6. Exit shell and install the software:
   

   user@srx% exit
user@srx> request system software add /tmp/usb/<upgrade filename> no-validate no-copy

7. Upon completion, reboot the SRX:
   

   user@srx> request system reboot

JUNOS : ACTIVATE YOUR SRX SERIES AND J SERIES FEATURES

Four Easy Steps to Activate Your Juniper Networks Product Features

 

1. Gather your Authorization Code and Device Serial Number.

Authorization Code:

The 16-digit alphanumeric Authorization Code is sent via email in response to your order and is required to generate the license activation key for your SRX Series device. The Authorization Code is required to generate your license key—it is not the actual license key.

Device Serial Number:

The device serial number is a unique 12-digit alphanumeric code used to identify your SRX Series device when generating license keys. You can find the SRX Series device serial number either on the bottom or sides of the unit. You can also find the serial number via the NSM Device Inventory Hardware tab by executing the CLI command, “show chassis hardware,” or through the J-Web Monitor Dashboard.

2. Sign in to the Juniper Networks License Management System at  www.juniper.net/generate_license ,

Select the J Series and SRX Series device link, and follow the instructions in the system user interface.

3. The Juniper License Management System provides you with your license key in one of two ways:

Download your license key to your computer from the Juniper Networks License Management System.

• You receive an email that contains the license key.

4. On the SRX Series Device:

CLI: request system license add terminal > Press Enter >

When prompted, type the license key separating multiple license keys with a blank line > Ctrl-D.

J-Web Interface:

Click Maintain > Licenses and enter the license key in one of the following ways:

•

In the license File URL box, type the URL for the license key website.

•Or copy the license key text, and paste it into the License Key Text box, separating multiple license keys with a blank line.

• Click OK

JUNOS : Configure System Log

By default, control protocol activity is logged as a separate system log facility, dfc. To modify the filename or level at which control protocol activity is recorded, include the following statements at the [edit syslog] hierarchy level:

[edit syslog]

file dfc.log {dfc any;}

To cancel logging, include the no-syslog statement at the [edit services dynamic-flow-capture capture-group client-name control-source identifier] hierarchy level:

[edit services dynamic-flow-capture capture-group client-name control-source identifier]no-syslog;
