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:

  1. Using a Web browser, navigate to the Juniper Networks Customer Support Center at https://www.juniper.net/customers/csc/software/.
  2. Log in to the Juniper Networks authentication system with the username (generally your e-mail address) and password supplied by Juniper Networks representatives.
  3. 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.
  4. Copy the software package to the routing platform. We recommend that you copy it to the /var/tmp directory.
  5. 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
  6. 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.

  7. Enable Web management of the routing platform. From configuration mode in the CLI, enter the following command:
    user@host# system services web-management http
