Starting the J-Web Interface
Before you start the user interface, you must perform the initial routing platform configuration described in the routing platform hardware guide. After the initial configuration, you use your username and password and the hostname or IP address of the router to start the user interface.
To start the J-Web interface:
- Launch a Web browser that has Hypertext Transfer
Protocol (HTTP) or HTTP over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS) enabled.
The HTTPS protocol, which uses 128-bit encryption, is available only in domestic versions of the Junos OS. To use HTTPS, you must have installed a certificate on the routing platform and enabled HTTPS.
Note: If the routing platform is running the worldwide version of the Junos OS and you are using the Microsoft Internet Explorer Web browser, you must disable the Use SSL 3.0 option in the Web browser to access the routing platform.
- After http:// or https:// in
your Web browser, type the hostname or IP address of the routing platform,
and press Enter.
The J-Web login page appears.
- On the login page, type your username and password,
and click Log In.
To correct or change the username or password you typed, click Reset, type the new entry or entries, and click Log In.
Note: The default username is root with no password. You must change this during initial configuration or the system does not accept the configuration.
The J-Web Initial Configuration Set Up page appears.
To explicitly terminate a J-Web session at any time, click Logout in the top pane.
