Configuring Activation Data for a Single Device
You can configure the activation data for a single device from the Ship Device page.
To configure activation data:
- Click Resources > Devices .
The Devices page appears.
- Select a device and click Ship Device.
The Ship Device page appears.
- Complete the configuration according to the guidelines provided in Table 1.
- Click OK. If you want to discard your changes,
click Cancel instead.
The activation data is stored in Contrail Service Orchestration and the device state on the Devices page changes to EXPECTED. When a customer activates the device, Contrail Service Orchestration uses the data to authenticate the device, and after successful validation, the device state changes to ACTIVE. Contrail Service Orchestration then uploads the vSRX image on to the CPE device and establishes tunnels for connectivity. When this process is successful, the device state changes to PROVISIONED. If the process fails, the device state will be PROVISION_FAILED.
Table 1: Fields on the Ship Device Page
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Customer Name | View the customer name. Example: allenucpe |
Site Name | View the customer site name. Example: allen |
Device Name | View the device name. Example: allen-site22-nfx250 |
Serial Number | Specify the serial number of the device. For the NFX250 device, use the show chassis hardware CLI command to find the serial number of the device. Example: DD2316AF0177 |
Activation Code ( only for NFX250 device) | Specify a code that an NFX250 device sends to the regional activation server to obtain its boot image. Other devices do not require the activation code. The administrator in the service provide network must also send the activation code to the customer, so that the site administrator can specify the activation code when they start up the device. You can use an unlimited number of alphanumeric characters but special characters are not allowed. Best Practice: Use a different number for each customer; however, you can use the same activation code for multiple devices. Example: 545454 |
Boot Image | Specify optional to use the boot image shipped with the device or select a release from the list. Example: juniper_nfx_1.5_img.tgz You can download device images from Junos Platforms - Download Software and upload the image to the Administration Portal. See Uploading a Device Image. |
