Integration Tasks
To integrate the JUNOS routing platform into the SDX network, you must:
- Configure the SAE to manage the JUNOS routing platform.
- Configure the JUNOS routing platform to interact with the SAE.
- Add the JUNOS routing platform and an associated VR called default to the directory.
Configuring the SAE to Manage JUNOS Routing Platforms
To configure the SAE to manage the JUNOS routing platform, you must install the SDX software and configure the SAE to interact with the JUNOS routing platform. For information on these tasks see SDX Components Guide, Vol. 1, Chapter 2, Configuring the SAE.
Configuring the JUNOS Routing Platforms to Interact with the SAE
To start the SDX process on the JUNOS routing platform, include statements at the [edit system services service-deployment] hierarchy level.
[edit system services service-deployment]servers server-address {port port-number;}source-address source-address;server-address
- Specifies the IP address of the host on which you install the SAE.
- Value - IP address
- Guidelines - be sure this setting matches the corresponding value in the SAE configuration.
- Default - none
- Example - 192.0.2.2
port-number
- Specifies the port number for the SAE; this setting must match the value in the SAE configuration.
- Value - TCP port number
- Guidelines - be sure this setting matches the corresponding value in the SAE configuration.
- Default - 3333
- Example - 3333
source-address
- Specifies the IP address of the source that sends traffic to the SAE.
- Value - IP address
- Guidelines - this setting is optional.
- Default - none
- Example - 192.0.2.2
For complete information on configuring the JUNOS routing platform, see the JUNOS Internet Software documentation.
Adding JUNOS Routing Platforms to the Directory
You must add each JUNOS routing platform that the SAE manages to the directory. For information on this procedure, see Chapter 1, Managing Routers and Virtual Routers.
