Building a Topology File Set
The process for building a topology file set depends on your operating system. Windows users can use WinZip or another Windows-based compression tool to create .zip files.
UNIX and Linux users can build a topology file set with a .tgz extension by performing the following steps:
- Create the directory structure specified below:
- <home>/active/
- <home>/active/configset/
- Add
topology.vmm
, the VMM configuration file that defines the topology, to the active directory. - Add the Junos OS configuration files for each network device referenced by topology.vmm to the <home>/active/configset/ directory.
- Create a topology file set, suitable for submission, by
doing the following for .tgz file types:
- Change to the <home>/active/ directory.
cd <home>/active
- Tar the files.
tar –cvf mytopology.tar *
- Zip the files.
gzip mytopology.tar
This creates the mytopology.tar.gz file.
- Change to the <home>/active/ directory.
- Change the extension on the file from mytopology.tar.gz to mytopology.tgz.
Topology file sets must have a .zip or .tgz extension to be uploaded.
