Introduction to the Junos Operating System
The management Ethernet interfaces include fxp0 on the M Series, T Series, and MX Series and me0 on the EX Series.
The Junos CLI
The Junos CLI is a text-based command shell. One option for accessing the CLI is through the out-of-band (OoB) serial console connection. The console port settings, shown on the slide, are predefined and are not user configurable.
A second option for accessing the CLI is over the network (in band) using access protocols such as Telnet or SSH. Unlike the console connection, these access options require configuration for a network port and the access protocol.
Many platforms running the Junos OS also offer a dedicated management Ethernet port. This management port provides OoB access; therefore, the software cannot forward transit traffic through this management port. The actual name of the dedicated management Ethernet port varies between platforms. For details on your specific platform, refer to http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/ for the technical publications.

The J-Web is a Web-based graphical user interface (GUI) that you access by using either Hypertext |
not included in the |
Transfer Protocol (HTTP) or HTTP over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS). It provides quick configuration |
M Series, T Series, and |
wizards to simplify the most common configuration tasks. For more complicated configurations, the |
MX Series install image |
J-Web GUI allows you to directly edit the system’s text configuration file. The J-Web GUI is installed |
and you must install it |
and enabled by default on most platforms running the Junos OS. Please see Appendix B for more |
