System Hierarchy and Statements

This chapter presents the complete system configuration hierarchy available on J-series Services Routers and SRX-series services gateways running JUNOS software. Where applicable, the chapter also provides a summary for each statement in the hierarchy that is exclusive to J-series and SRX-series devices. Statement summaries are organized alphabetically.

Use the statements in the system configuration hierarchy to configure system management functions, including the device’s hostname, address, and domain name; the addresses of the Domain Name System (DNS) servers; user login accounts, including user authentication and the root-level user account; time zones and Network Time Protocol (NTP) properties; and properties of the device’s auxiliary and console ports. For configuration instructions, see the JUNOS Software Security Configuration Guide and the JUNOS Software Administration Guide.

For information about system statements that are not explained here—statements that are shared across Juniper Networks devices—see the JUNOS System Basics Configuration Guide and the JUNOS Network Interfaces Configuration Guide.
