Viewing and Deleting MD5 Validation Results

Using Junos Space Network Management Platform, you can validate the completeness of a device image that is staged on the devices. If the checksum values of a device image file on the Junos Space server and the device match, then there is a high probability that the images are the same. The result of this validation appears on the Validation Results page. From this page, you can view and delete the validation results.

For more information about verifying the checksum, see Verifying the Checksum.

Viewing the MD5 Validation Results

The MD5 validation results indicate whether the device image that is staged on a device is completely transferred to the device or not. The result also indicates whether the device image is not present on the selected devices.

Note:

You can view the MD5 validation results of satellite software packages and Junos Continuity software packages by following the procedure for viewing the MD5 validation results of device images.

To view the MD5 validation results:
