Installing and Understanding AI-Scripts

This chapter describes Advanced Insight Scripts (AI-Scripts) and how they operate in the Advanced Insight Solutions system. AI-Scripts are available to all Advanced Insight Solutions (AIS) customers with a valid support contract. This chapter describes how to install AI-Script install packages automatically (recommended for many devices) and manually (for few devices only) on Juniper Networks devices running JUNOS.

Devices running AI-Scripts are the first component in the AIS system. AI-Scripts installed on Juniper Networks devices provide the intelligence needed to automatically detect and report problem (incident) and intelligence events to ensure maximum network uptime.

NOTE: It does not matter whether AI-Scripts or AIM is installed first. However, for both, it is necessary, to know the archive location (archive-site destination) used for devices to send incident and intelligence JMBs and for AIM to retrieve this data. You can add the archive location to the device JUNOS configuration for both AI-Scripts and AIM after the initial installation, but the components are not really usable until the archive location is configured.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• AI-Script Overview
• Installing AI-Script Packages
• Storing JMBs Locally On a Device
