Importing a Software Image

Before you can install a software image using the Software Manager, you must first download it from the Juniper Networks Support Web page to the local file system of your workstation, then import it into the JUNOScope server.

To download software images from the Juniper Networks software download page, you must have a service contract and an access account. If you do not have an access account, complete the registration form at the Juniper Networks Web site: https://www.juniper.net/registration/Register.jsp.

To import a software image into the JUNOScope software, follow these steps:

  1. Download the software image you need from the Juniper Networks Support Web site, http://www.juniper.net/support/ to your workstation.
    1. Select the Canada and US, Worldwide, or JUNOS-FIPs editions.
    2. Select the software release that you want.
  2. Log in to the JUNOScope software and click Software Management > Images.

    The Images dialog box appears. If you have not imported any software images, the Images dialog box is empty.

  4. Use Browse to navigate to the software image file on the local file system that you want to import. For example, you can import a software image file, such as jinstall-7.5R2.8-domestic-signed.tgz, to install on M-series and T-series routing platforms.
  5. Click Import.

    The JUNOS software imports the software image. This operation may take a while, depending on the size of the image and the connection speed between the local machine and the JUNOScope server. The imported software image file appears in the Images dialog box. For more information about how to manage software images in the Images dialog box, see Managing Software Images.
