FTP to transfer the software release files from the network host to the E-series router. In this case, you must configure the FTP server on the E-series router and ensure that FTP client software is installed on the network host.
Enable the FTP server on the E-series router. Identify the files to transfer. Transfer the files to the user space on the E-series router. Install the software release file to the system space on the E-series router. Save the current configuration.
APPENDIX B Installing JUNOSe Software Task 3: Access Privileged Exec Mode To access this mode via the CLI: Task 4: Configure IP on an Interface Typically, you configure IP on the Fast Ethernet interface of the SRP module. To configure IP on an interface: Note: If an IP interface is not configured, you see the message “Invalid interface.”...
If the network host is listed, go to step 8. Otherwise, proceed with step 7. Add an entry to the Static Host Table so that the E-series router can access the network host. The host command allows you to specify the network host name and IP address.
Task 9: Transfer Files to the User Space To transfer the files for the release to the E-series user space, use the FTP client software on the network host to connect to the FTP server on the E-series router.
Press <CTRL-Z> to return to Privileged Exec mode. Check that the E-series router is ready to boot with the new software release. host1#show boot If the old software version is still listed, verify that you completed the previous steps correctly.
Installing JUNOSe Software Installing Software When a Firewall Does Not Exist If there is no firewall between the E-series router and the network host on which you mount the software CD, you can transfer the software release files from the network host to the E-series router via the E-series FTP server or by issuing the copy command.
