Step 6: Perform Initial Software Configuration
This procedure connects the router to the network but does not enable it to forward
traffic. For complete information about configuring the router to forward traffic,
including examples, see the JUNOS software configuration guides.
To configure the software:
1.
Turn the circuit breaker or toggle switch for each power supply to the on position
to boot the router. The
OK
LED on the power supply faceplate should blink, then
light steadily.
2.
Log in as the “root” user. There is no password.
3.
Start the CLI.
root#
cli
root@>
4.
Enter configuration mode.

in quotation marks (“ ”).

Configure the router's domain name.

set system domain-name
domain-name
7.
Configure the IP address and prefix length for the router's Ethernet interface.
[edit]
root@#
set interfaces fxp0 unit 0 family inet address
address/prefix-length
8.
Configure the IP address of a backup router, which is used only while the routing
protocol is not running.
[edit]
root@#
set system backup-router
address
9.
Configure the IP address of a DNS server.
[edit]
root@#
set system name-server

Set the root authentication password by entering either a clear-text password,
an encrypted password, or an SSH public key string (DSA or RSA).
