Configuring Protection Against DDoS Attacks

DDoS protection is enabled by default for all supported protocol groups and packet types. Default values are present for bandwidth, bandwidth scale, burst, burst scale, priority, and recover time. You can change the DDoS configuration for individual packet types within a protocol group or for the aggregate policer for the protocol group. DDoS logging is enabled by default, but you can disable it globally for all DDoS events or for individual packet types within a protocol group. You can also fine-tune monitoring of DDoS events by configuring tracing operations.

You can disable DDoS protection at the Routing Engine and for all line cards either globally or for individual packet types within a protocol group.

DDoS protection is supported only on MX Series routers that have only MPCs installed and T4000 routers that have only FPC5s installed. If the router has other line cards in addition to MPCs or FPC5s, respectively, the CLI accepts the configuration but the other line cards are not protected and so the router is not protected.

Program the network with Junos Space

Simple. Smart. Scalable.
The Junos Space SDK and Junos Space NBI make it simple to safely extract data from your network to use in applications. Using this data allows for the creation of solutions that can respond and react to your network, making applications more intelligent and providing better end-user experiences.

How to copy from USB to internal memory for upgrading or troubleshooting

To copy a Junos software installation package (e.g., jinstall-xxxx-xxx.tgz) from USB storage to internal flash memory, follow these steps:
1. Insert a USB storage into the PC.

2. Copy a Junos software installation package (e.g., "jinstall-xxxx-xxx.tgz") from the PC to USB storage (USB storage must be formatted in FAT16 or FAT32).

3. Insert the USB storage into one of USB slot(s) in the router.

4. Issue the following commands in shell mode (the root privilege is required):

      root@% mkdir /var/tmp/usb (any directory name can be used as mounted directory)
   root@% mount -t msdos /dev/ad[N]s1 /var/tmp/usb
   ### [N] is discussed later.

5. Verify the contents of the USB storage in the mounting point (/var/tmp/usb).

   root@% pwd
   /cf/var/tmp/usb
   root@% ls
   jinstall-xxxx-xxx.tgz
   root@%

6. Copy the file from USB storage to internal flash.

   root@% cp /var/tmp/usb/jinstall-xxxx-xxx.tgz /root/.

Or it's possible to upgrade the Junos software from the USB storage directly:

      root> request system software add /var/tmp/usb/jinstall-xxxx-xxx.tgz <options...>


In order to recognize device name in the routers:

When a USB storage is inserted in a USB slot, the system shows the information of the inserted device name on the console or can be verified using the "dmesg" command.

For example, when the system displays the following message, the device name is "/dev/ad2s1" in this case:

    -----------------------------------------------------
    root@% umass1: SanDisk MobileMate Micro, rev 2.00/94.07, addr 4
    ad2 at umass-sim1 bus 1 target 0 lun 0
    ad2: <Generic STORAGE DEVICE 9407> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device
    ad2: 40.000MB/s transfers
    ad2: 982MB (2012160 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 982C)
    -----------------------------------------------------

Note that the device name is not related to the used slot or module number. It is considered that the number of the device such as ad1 and ad2 increments as the device is mounted.

Contrail Networking

Overview

Juniper Networks Contrail Networking is a simple, open, and agile SDN solution that automates and orchestrates the creation of highly scalable virtual networks. These virtual networks let you harness the power of the cloud—for new services, increased business agility, and revenue growth.

SIMPLE: Creates virtual networks that integrate seamlessly with existing physical networks, and that are easy to manage and orchestrate.

OPEN: Avoids expensive vendor-lock with an open architecture that interoperates with a wide range hypervisors, orchestration systems, and physical networks.

AGILE: Speeds time to market for new services by automating the creation of virtual networks that interconnect private, hybrid, and public clouds.

Service providers can use Contrail Networking to enable a range of innovative new services, including cloud-based offerings and virtualized managed services. For enterprises, Contrail Networking can increase business agility by enabling the migration of applications and IT resources to more flexible private or hybrid cloud environments.

Features

• Network virtualization enables customized secure networks in a multitenant environment.
• Simple policy control for inserting and chaining virtual network functions speeds time to market for services and improves business agility and predictability.
• Open source, open standards, and open interfaces in the system architecture ensure transparency, vendor-agnostic interoperability, and a future-proof platform.
• Infrastructure analytics and visualization provide insights into virtual and physical networks to simplify operations and decision making through proactive planning and predictive diagnostics.
• The hypervisor-level vRouter forwarding plane provides line-rate overlay packet processing in a multitenant virtualized, containerized, or bare-metal environment completely decoupled from the underlying physical fabric switches.
• Elastic, resilient VPN delivers openly standardized L3VPN and E-VPN style overlay that can easily span cloud boundaries with federation.
• Gateway services in both software and vendor-agnostic hardware—Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers and QFX Series switches, for example—seamlessly offer high-speed connection to legacy networked workloads.
• REST API facilitates configuration, operational, and analytical IT DevOps automation and integration with cloud orchestration systems.

vMX

The vMX is a virtual MX Series 3D Universal Edge Router that extends 15+ years of Juniper Networks edge routing expertise to the virtual realm. The vMX is a full-featured, carrier-grade router with complete control, forwarding and management planes. It runs the Junos Operating System, and supports vTrio packet handling and forwarding by compiling the programmable Junos Trio chipset microcode for x86 chipsets.

The vMX supports sophisticated routing services, including vPE and vCPE, and is ideally suited for rapid service scale out and agile service introduction and modification for both service provider and enterprise applications. With its granular, ‘pay as you grow’ licensing model, the vMX reduces the risk associated with new market entry and service innovation and allows you to start small, move fast, and stay profitable. Not only is it an ideal platform for markets and applications that are difficult to serve with traditional hardware routers, it is also a great option for proof of concept validation, lab testing and feature and release certification.

Features

• Carrier-grade routing implementation optimized for the x86 environment.
• Rapid service enablement by leveraging virtualization technology.
• Leverages current and future Junos OS and Junos Trio R&D efforts.
• Pay-as-you-grow licensing model for granular network scale-out.
• Consistency with physical MX Series portfolio simplifies operations.
• Enables new service introductions without reconfiguring current routing infrastructure.
