Other Tools to Configure and Monitor Devices Running Junos OS

Apart from the command-line interface, Junos OS also supports the following applications, scripts, and utilities that enable you to configure and monitor devices running Junos OS:

  • J-Web graphical user interface (GUI)—Allows you to monitor, configure, troubleshoot, and manage the router on a client by means of a Web browser with Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) or HTTP over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS) enabled. For more information, see the J-Web Interface User Guide.
  • Junos XML management protocol—Application programmers can use the Junos XML management protocol to monitor and configure Juniper Networks routers. Juniper Networks provides a Perl module with the API to help you more quickly and easily develop custom Perl scripts for configuring and monitoring routers. For more information, see the Junos XML Management Protocol Guide.
  • NETCONF Application Programming Interface (API)—Application programmers can also use the NETCONF XML management protocol to monitor and configure Juniper Networks routers. For more information, see the NETCONF XML Management Protocol Guide.
  • Junos OS commit scripts and self-diagnosis features—You can define scripts to enforce custom configuration rules, use commit script macros to provide simplified aliases for frequently used configuration statements, and configure diagnostic event policies and actions associated with each policy. For more information, see the Junos OS Configuration and Operations Automation Guide.
  • Management Information Bases (MIBs)—You can use enterprise-specific and standard MIBS to retrieve information about the hardware and software components on a Juniper Networks router. For more information about MIBs, see the Network Management Configuration Guide.
