Installing the J-Web Software
Your routing platform comes with the Junos OS installed on it. When you power on the routing platform, all software starts automatically. On J Series routers, the J-Web software is part of the Junos OS available by default. However, on M Series and T Series routers, you need to install the J-Web software because it is not shipped on the routing platform.
If your routing platform is not shipped with the J-Web software on it, you must download the J-Web software package from the Juniper Networks webpage and install it on your routing platform. After the installation, you must enable Web management of the routing platform with the CLI.
![]() | Note: M Series routers or T320, T640, and TX Matrix routers must be running Junos OS version 7.3 or later to support the J-Web interface. Except the T320, T640, and TX Matrix routers, other T Series routers do not support the J-Web software. |
To install and enable the J-Web software:
- Using a Web browser, navigate to the Juniper Networks Customer Support Center at https://www.juniper.net/customers/csc/software/.
- Log in to the Juniper Networks authentication system with the username (generally your e-mail address) and password supplied by Juniper Networks representatives.
- Download the J-Web software to your local host. Select the version that is the same as the Junos OS version running on the routing platform.
- Copy the software package to the routing platform. We recommend that you copy it to the /var/tmp directory.
- If you have previously installed the J-Web software on
the routing platform, you must delete it before installing the new
version. To do so, from operational mode in the CLI, enter the following
command:user@host> request system software delete jweb
- Install the new package on the routing platform. From
operational mode in the CLI, enter the following command:user@host> request system software add path/filename
Replace path with the full pathname to the J-Web software package. Replace filename with the filename of the J-Web software package.
- Enable Web management of the routing platform. From configuration
mode in the CLI, enter the following command: user@host# system services web-management http
