Adding a Device

You must first add a router, as described in this procedure, before you can manage it.

To add a device, follow these steps:

In the JUNOScope main window, click Settings > Devices. The Devices dialog box appears.
Click Add. The Add Device—Enter Connection Information dialog box appears.
Type a DNS name or IP address for the device.
In the Access Method drop-down list box, select an access method for connecting to the device.
Click Next.
The JUNOScope software connects to the device, and the Add a Device—Verify Device Information dialog box appears displaying the device hostname, domain name, hardware model number, JUNOS software version and whether it is supported, and the number of Routing Engines installed on the device.
Click Next. The Add Device—Edit Device Information dialog box appears with the information about the device already filled in.
Verify that the device information is correct and add a descriptive comment and location of the device if required.
Click the label check box(es), if configured, at the bottom area of the dialog box to associate the device with an existing label. A label is used to statically group multiple devices so that JUNOScope operations, such as archive and inventory scan can be performed on them. For information about setting up labels, see Setting Up Labels.
Click OK. The new device information is stored in the JUNOScope software database and is listed in the Devices dialog box.
