TODO Clean up, reorganize and add remaining stuff.

Resources

Initial Setup

Common setup for MX, SRX, QFX, EX.

Connect to the switch using serial:
- RS-232 w/ RJ45, baud 9600, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bits, no flow control.
Log in:
1. It should say "Amnesiac" above the login prompt as the name of the switch, to show that it's factory reset.
2. Login as root with no password to enter the shell.
3. Enter the Junos operational CLI by typing cli.
(EX) (Optional) Free virtual chassis ports (VCPs) for normal use:
1. Enter op mode.
2. Show VCPs: show virtual-chassis vc-port
3. Remove VCPs: request virtual-chassis vc-port delete pic-slot <pic-slot> port <port-number>
4. Show again to make sure they disappear. This may take a few seconds.
(Note) Enter configuration mode:
- Enter: configure
- Commit: commit
- Exit: exit

Interfaces

(Optional) Delete default interfaces configs (example):
1. wildcard range delete interface ge-0/0/[0-7]
(EX/QFX/SRX) (Optional) Disable default VLAN RVI:
1. (Note) The interface is called vlan for older devices and irb for newer ones.
2. Delete config: delete int irb.0
3. Disable: set int irb.0 disable
(Optional) Disable unused interfaces (example):
1. wildcard range set interface ge-0/0/[0-7] disable
2. set interface cl-1/0/0 disable
3. set interface dl0 disable
(Optional) Setup interface-ranges (apply config to multiple configured interfaces):
- Declare range: edit interfaces interface-range <name>
- Add member ports: member-range <begin-if> to <end-if>
- Configure it as a normal interface, which will be applied to all members.
(Optional) Setup LACP toward upstream/downstream switch:
1. (Info) Make sure you allocate enough LAG interfaces and that the interface numbers are below some arbitrary power-of-2-limit for the device model. Maybe the CLI auto-complete shows a hint toward the max.
2. Set number of available LAG interfaces: set chassis aggregated-devices ethernet device-count <0-64>
3. Delete old configs for member interface: wildcard range delete interfaces ge-0/0/[0-1] (example)
4. Add member interfaces: wildcard range set interfaces ge-0/0/[0-1] ether-options 802.3ad ae<n>
5. Add some description to member interfaces: wildcard range set interfaces ge-0/0/[0-1] description link:switch
6. Enter LAG interface: edit interface ae<n>
7. Set description: set desc link:switch
8. Set LACP active: set aggregated-ether-options lacp active
9. Set LACP fast: set aggregated-ether-options lacp periodic fast
10. (Optional) Set minimum links: aggregated-ether-options minimum-links 1
(EX/QFX/SRX) Setup switch trunk ports:
1. (Note) vlan members supports both numbers and names. Use the [VLAN1 VLAN2 <...>] syntax to specify multiple VLANs.
2. (Note) Instead of specifying which VLANs to add, specify vlan members all and vlan except <excluded-VLANs>.
3. (Note) vlan members should not include the native VLAN (if any).
4. Enter unit 0 and family ethernet-switching of the physical/LACP interface.
5. Set mode: set port-mode trunk
6. Set VLANs: set vlan members <VLANs>
7. (Optional) Set native VLAN: set native-vlan-id <VID>
(EX/QFX/SRX) Setup access ports:
1. Enter unit 0 and family ethernet-switching of the physical/LACP interface.
2. Set access VLAN: set vlan members <VLAN-name>
(EX/QFX/SRX) Setup VLAN L3 interfaces:
1. (VLAN) Set L3-interface: set vlans <name> l3-interface irb.<VID>
2. Enter unit 0 of physical/LACP interface or irb.<VID> for VLAN interfaces.
3. Set IPv4 address: set family inet address <address>/<prefix-length>
4. Set IPv6 address: set family inet6 address <address>/<prefix-length>
(Optional) Disable/enable Ethernet flow control:
- (Note) Junos uses the symmetric/bidirectional PAUSE variant of flow control.
- (Note) This simple PAUSE variant does not take traffic classes (for QoS) into account and will pause all traffic for a short period (no random early detection (RED)) if the receiver detects that it's running out of buffer space, but it will prevent dropping packets within the flow control-enabled section of the L2 network. Enabling it or disabling it boils down to if you prefer to pause (all) traffic or drop (some) traffic during congestion. As a guideline, keep it disabled generally (and use QoS or more sophisticated variants instead), but use it e.g. for dedicated iSCSI networks (which handle delays better than drops). Note that Ethernet and IP don't require guaranteed packet delivery.
- (Note) It may be enabled by default, so you should probably enable/disable it explicitly (the docs aren't consistent with my observations).
- (Note) Simple/PAUSE flow control (flow-control) is mutually exclusive with priority-based flow control (PFC) and asymmetric flow control (configured-flow-control).
- Disable on Ethernet interface (explicit): set interface <if> [aggregated-]ether-options no-flow-control
- Enable (explicit): ... flow-control
(Optional) Enable EEE (Energy-Efficient Ethernet, IEEE 802.3az):
- (Note) For reducing power consumption during idle periods. Supported on RJ45 copper ports.
- (Note) There generally is no reason to not enable this on all ports, however, there may be certain devices or protocols which don't play nice with EEE (due to poor implementations).
- Enable on RJ45 Ethernet interface: set interface <if> ether-options ieee-802-3az-eee

- Avoid inheriting the group in some child section: apply-groups-except <name>
- Local elements override the template.
- Show config with inherited properties: show | display inheritance

Port Mirroring (SPAN)

Booting

The devices have two partitions; the primary and the backup. One of them will be designated as active and that choice will be remembered across reboots. When the active partition is damaged, the device will boot into the other partition. When the backup partition is the active partition, an alarm will be set and a banner shown.

Change active partition and reboot: request system reboot slice alternate media internal

Shutting It Down

The devices should be shut down gracefully instead of just pulling the power. This will prevent corrupting the file system.

Oper CLI: request system <halt|power-off> [local|all-members|member <member-id>]
Shell: shutdown -h now or halt

Wait for the "The operating system has halted." text before pulling the power, so that system processess are stopped and disks are synchronized. The system LED turning off and the LCD saying "HALTING..." does not mean that the halting process is finished yet.

Basics

TODO Move this.

Shut down or reboot: request system <halt|reboot> [local|all-members]
- For halt, it will print "please press any key to reboot" when halted.
Erase all data and reboot fresh: request system zeroize
Show system alarms: show system alarms
Show chassis alarms: show chassis alarms
Show temperatures and fan speeds: show chassis environment
Show routing engine usage: show chassis routing-engine
Show effective configuration (with inheritance): show <configuration> | display inheritance

Move Config

Copy config from host to device over SCP:
1. Copy (host): scp <config> <device>:/config/juniper.conf.new
2. Load (conf mode): load override /config/juniper.conf.new
3. Show changes and commit.
4. Delete tmp config (op mode): file delete /config/juniper.conf.new

Interfaces

Show interfaces:
- Overview: show interfaces terse
- Simple overview: show interfaces routing
- Some details: show interfaces brief
- Statistics: show interfaces statistics
- All details: show interfaces detail
- Physical details: show interfaces media
Show switching/VLAN details for interface: show ethernet-switching interface
Show LLDP neighbors: show lldp neighbors
Show DHCP client:
- Show binding: show dhcp client binding
- Show stats: show dhcp client statistics

IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND)

Disallow solicitations from remote prefixes (config): set protocols neighbor-discovery onlink-subnet-only

DHCPv4 Server

Note that newer Junos versions use a different DHCP setup (JDHCP), with pool settings inside access address-asignment.
Show clients: show dhcp server binding
Show client detauls: show dhcp server binding <address> detail
Show stats: show dhcp server statistics

Events

Show event type info: help syslog SNMP_TRAP_LINK_DOWN (op mode) (example)
Show available event attributes: Use ?-completion.
Show log: run show log escript.log | last
From docs: "Do not use the change-configuration statement to modify the configuration on dual Routing Engine devices that have nonstop active routing (NSR) enabled, because both Routing Engines might attempt to acquire a lock on the configuration database, which can cause the commit to fail."

Rescue Configuration

The rescue config is a copy of the config, which the system attempts to use if it detects that the main config is corrupted.
Show rescue config: show system configuration rescue
Save current committed config to rescue config: request system configuration rescue save
Delete rescue config: request system configuration rescue delete
Rollback to rescue config (config CLI): rollback rescue

Autorecovery

Only supported in some dual-partitioned with newer software.
Shows an alarm about autorecovery information that needs to be saved if you're configuring a factory reset device.
Autorecovery stores disk partitioning, configuration and license information, then validates and attempts to recover corruption during bootup.
Show autorecovery status: show system autorecovery state
Save autorecovery info: request system autorecovery state save
Delete autorecovery info: request system autorecovery state clear

Miscellanea

Set system auto-snapshot on single-flash devices to make them automatically rebuild the alternate partition in case of corruption.

Tasks

Reset Config or Root Password

Power on the device and prepare for the next step.
Wait for the "Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or space bar for command prompt." message to be shown and then press space. You should immediately enter a prompt (typically loader>).
Run boot -s to boot into single-user mode.
When prompted for a shell, enter recovery.
Wait for the device to fully boot.
(Alternative 1) Zeroize the system by running request system zeroize (this will delete all configuration).
(Alternative 2) Set a new root password and commit (there should be instructions before the prompt). Reboot the device afterwards.

Mount a USB Drive

Note: USB3 drives may not work properly. Use USB2 drives.

Make sure the drive is MBR-partitioned and that the partition is formatted as FAT32 (mkfs.fat -F32).
To make it easier to find the device path in Junos, don't insert the USB drive just yet.
Show current storage devices: ls -l /dev/da*
Insert the drive. It should print a few lines to the console.
Show current storage devices again and find the new device. (df -h may also be used to see which one is in use.)
Mount it: mkdir /var/tmp/usb0 && mount_msdosfs <device> /var/tmp/usb0 (arbitrary path)
Check that it's mounted properly: ls -l /var/tmp/usb0
Do stuff with it.
Unmount it: umount /var/tmp/usb0 && rmdir /var/tmp/usb0

Upgrade Junos

Normal Method

This should work in most cases and is the most streamlined version, but may not work for major version hops and stuff.

(Info) For virtualized boxes like EX4600 and QFX5100, skip the request system snapshot parts as these boxes are built differently wrt. Junos.
Cleanup old files: request system storage cleanup
- Do this before mounting the USB or downloading the files, as the upgrade files may get wiped.
Make sure the alternate partition contains a working copy of the current version: See Validate the Partitions.
If downloading from a remote location:
1. Get the file: file copy <remote-url> /var/tmp/
 - If it says it ran out of space, add staging-directory /var/tmp. By defaults it's buffered on the root partition, which may be tiny.
 - Alternatively, copy the file into the device from the remote device, using SCP.
If copying from a USB drive:
1. Format the USB drive using FAT32 and copy the software file to the drive.
2. Enter shell mode on the device: start shell user root
3. Mount the USB drive: mkdir /var/tmp/usb0 && mount_msdosfs /dev/da1s1 /var/tmp/usb0
  - See mount a USB drive for details.
4. Check the contents (copy the filename for later): ls -l /var/tmp/usb0
5. Copy the file to internal storage: cp /var/tmp/usb0/jinstall* /var/tmp/
6. Unmount and remove the USB drive: umount /var/tmp/usb0 && rmdir /var/tmp/usb0
7. Enter operational CLI again: exit (or cli)
Prepare upgrade: request system software add /var/tmp/<file> no-copy unlink reboot [no-validate] [force-host] (supports auto-complete)
- no-copy prevents copying the file first (in this case it's pointless).
- unlink removes the file afterwards.
- reboot reboots the device, so the upgrade can begin when booting.
- If it complains about certificate problems, consider disabling verification using no-validate.
- For virtualized devices, add force-host to upgrade the host too.
- If the date is significantly wrong on the device and NTP isn't used/synced, set it manually with set date <YYYYMMDDhhmm> first so validation doesn't fail.
- It may produce some insignificant errors in the process (commands not found etc.).
See Validate the Partitions to copy the upgraded partition to the other partition.

From the Loader

If the normal method did not work, try this instead.

Copy the file to the device disk using the "normal" USB method.
Connect using a serial cable.
Reboot the device and press space at the right time to enter the loader.
- The message to wait for should look like this: Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or space bar for command prompt.
Format and flash: install --format file:///jinstall-whatever.tgz (with correct name, no /var/tmp/)
See Validate the Partitions to copy the upgraded partition to the other partition.

Validate the Partitions

Do this before as a check and after to make sure the new image is working and copied to both partitions.

Log into the CLI.
Verify that the system is booted from the active partition of the internal media: show system storage partitions (should show Currently booted from: active)
Verify that the current Junos version for the primary partition is correct: show system snapshot media internal
Copy to the alternate root partition, so both have the same version (may take several minutes): request system snapshot slice alternate
Verify that the primary and backup partitions have the same Junos version: show system snapshot media internal
- If the command fails, wait a bit and try again. The copy may still be happening in the background.
(Info) To boot from the alternative partition: request system reboot slice alternate media internal

ISSU and NSSU

Just info, no instructions here.

ISSU and NSSU may be used for upgrade without downtime, if the hardware supports it.
If using redundant hardware (multiple REs), ISSU may be use for upgrades without downtime. It may blow up. One RE is upgraded first, then state is transferred to it. Normal upgrade with reboot is more reliable if short downtime is acceptable.
If using virtual chassis, NSSU is similar to ISSU but doesn't require the same kind of state sync.

Fix a Corrupt Root Partition

If one of the root partitions get corrupted (e.g. due to sudden power loss), the device will boot to the alternate root partition. This can be fixed by cloning the new active partition to the alternate, corrupt partition.

See Validate the Partitions or [EX] Switch boots from backup root partition after file system corruption occurred on the primary root partition (Juniper).

Info

Junos OS

Based on FreeBSD.
Used on all Juniper devices.
Juniper's next-generation OS "Junos OS evolved" (not "Junos OS") is based on Linux.

Versions

Example: 20.4R3-S1.3
Format: <year>.<quarter>[R1-3][-S...]
There is one main release for each quarter of the year. They may be a bit delayed such that they don't perfectly match the quarter.
There are zero to three extra cumulative bug patches R1 to R3 (no suffix for the initial release).
Each release is supported for exactly three years.

Interfaces

Interface name structure:

Physical interfaces:
- Format: <type>-<fpc>/<pic>/<port>
- Example: ge-0/0/0
- See the table for interface types.
- The Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC) is typically 0 for single devices or equal to the member ID if using VC.
- The Physical Interface Card (PIC) refers to the line card within a physical chassis, and is typically always 0 for fixed-format devices.
Logical interfaces:
- Format: <phys-if>.<unit>
- Example: ge-0/0/0.0
- The unit number is a non-negative number, often just 0 for physical interfaces that just need one logical interface, or corresponding to subinterface numbers for VLAN trunks.
Channelized interfaces (aka breakout interfaces):
- Format: <phys-if>:<channel>
- Example parent: et-0/0/0
- Example channel: xe-0/0/0:0 (0-3)
- Channelized interfaces allows for splitting e.g. a 40G interface into four 10G interfaces using a breakout cable.

Physical interfaces:
