Adding and Importing a Junos Cluster

If the cluster is already installed and configured on the network, then you can add and
import that cluster into NSM.
On each cluster member device, configure NSM administrator logon credentials.
1.
In NSM, add the cluster object using the Add Cluster wizard.
2.
In the Device Manager, select Devices, click the Add icon, and select Cluster from the
list. Provide the cluster name and color of the icon. Select Junos as the OS name and
J/SRX Series as the Junos OS Type. Provide the platform and managed OS version.
The Junos OS type, platform, and OS version must match those on the physical devices.
In NSM, add each cluster member.
3.
Right-click the cluster icon in the Device Manager and select New > Cluster Member,
and follow the instructions in the Add Cluster Member wizard. When prompted, select
Device Is Not Reachable to add an existing device with a dynamic IP address.
The last step in adding the cluster member prompts you to continue adding cluster
members. Select this option if you have more members to add; unselect it if you are
done adding members.
NOTE: When you add Junos cluster members into a cluster, ensure that
you add the secondary member before you add the primary member.
On each cluster member device, configure and activate the NSM agent and establish
4.
an SSH session with NSM.
Import the cluster.
5.
In the Device Manager, open the cluster icon, right-click on one cluster member and
select Import Device from the list. You do this only once and for the entire cluster
because the configuration is identical for all cluster members.
NOTE: When importing a cluster of SRX Series Services Gateways, first
import the node1 device in the cluster to prevent issues with sync status.
After importing, the configuration appears at the cluster level in NSM. To view or edit the
configuration, open the cluster icon, not the individual cluster members.

Adding a Junos Cluster with Modeled Cluster Members

When adding a modeled cluster member, you need only provide a member name. The
modeled member must be activated later when the device is ready, just as for the
standalone device. At that point, you provide the remaining information necessary for
managing the device through NSM, such as the first connection one-time password, the
NSM administrator username and password, and the Device Server IP address.
To add a cluster with modeled cluster members:
