Task 2: Connect the Power Cable and a Power Source
Connect the device to a power source using the power cable. We recommend using a
surge protector and connecting an earth ground lug. Note the following indications:
POWER LED on front panel: The LED turns green immediately and remains green

indicating that the device is receiving power.
STATUS LED on front panel: The LED turns amber until the device has completed

booting up and then it turns green indicating that device is operating normally and
rescue configuration is available.
ALARM LED on front panel: This LED is amber because a rescue configuration is

not available.
Task 3: Connect the Management Device
Connect the management device to the services gateway using either of the following
methods:
Connect the interface (port 0/1) on the front panel to the Ethernet port on the

management device (laptop or PC) using an Ethernet cable that has an RJ-45
connector attached to it. We recommend this connection method. If you are using
this method to connect, proceed with Task 4.
Connect an RJ-45 (Ethernet cable) from the port labeled CONSOLE to the DB-9

adapter, which then connects to the serial port on the management device. (Serial
port settings: 9600 8-N-1-N)
If you are using this method to connect, proceed with the CLI configuration
instructions available in the Branch SRX Series Services Gateways Golden
Configurations at www.juniper.net/us/en/local/pdf/app-notes/3500153-en.pdf .
Task 4: Ensure That the Management Device Acquires an IP Address
After you connect the management device to the services gateway, the DHCP server
process on the services gateway will automatically assign an IP address to the
management device. Ensure that the management device acquires an IP address on the
192.168.1/24 subnetwork (other than 192.168.1.1).
DHCP State IP Address

Server 192.168.1.0/24

Policy Action

NOTE: If an IP address is not assigned to the management device, manually configure
an IP address in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnetwork while the management device is still
connected to the 0/1 (interface ge-0/0/1) port. Do not assign the 192.168.1.1 IP address
to the management device, as this IP address is assigned to the device.
NOTE: When an SRX550 Services Gateway is powered on for the first time, it boots
using the factory default configuration.
Task 5: Ensure That the Services Gateway Acquires an IP Address
Use one of the following methods to obtain an IP address for the services gateway:
Method 1: Obtaining a Dynamic IP Address on Your Services Gateway

Use the port labeled 0/0 (interface ge-0/0/0) to connect to your Internet service
provider (ISP). Your ISP will assign an IP address to the services gateway by using
the DHCP process. if you use this method, when you get to Task 7, skip Steps 3
through 6.
Method 2: Obtaining a Static IP Address on Your Services Gateway

Use the port labeled 0/0 (interface ge-0/0/0) to connect to your ISP. Your ISP will
have provided a static IP address. You must configure this static IP address on the
services gateway as described in Task 7, Steps 3 through 6. If you use this method,
the services gateway will not receive an IP address through the DHCP process.
Task 6: Access the J-Web User Interface
1. Launch a supported web browser from the management device.
NOTE: To access the J-Web interface, your management device requires a
supported browser: either Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7.0 (or later) or Mozilla
Firefox version 3.0 (or later). Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6.0 is also
supported as a backward compatible from IE 7.0.
2. Type http://192.168.1.1 in the URL address field.
3. Specify the default username as root. Do not enter any value in the Password field.
4. Click Log In. The J-Web Setup Wizard page appears.
