Step 2. Configuring Basic Settings with J-Web Quick Configuration

When you click OK or Apply on J-Web Quick Configuration pages, the configuration is saved and activated automatically. To configure basic settings with the J-Web interface:

  1. If the Set Up Quick Configuration page is not displayed, select Configuration>Quick Configuration >Set Up.
  2. Enter information in the boxes on the Set Up Quick Configuration page as shown in Table 2, then click OK or Apply.

    Table 2: J-Web Set Up Quick Configuration

    Field

    Description

    Host Name (required)

    Hostname of the router—for example, Chicago.

    Domain Name

    Network or subnetwork that the router belongs to.

    Root Password (required)

    Root password that user “root” can use to log in to the router.

    Verify Root Password (required)

    Retyped password.

    Time Zone

    Time zone in which the router is located.

    NTP Servers

    NTP server to synchronize the system time.

    Current System Time

    Your current time and date.

    DNS Name Servers

    DNS server to resolve hostnames into addresses.

    Domain Search

    Name of each domain to include in a DNS search.

    Default Gateway

    Default route. The IP address of a default router that the Services Router can use to direct packets addressed to networks not explicitly listed in the routing table.

    Loopback Address

    Reserved IP address that is always available on the router. By default, this address is set to 127.0.0.1/32.

    fe-0/0/0 Address

    or

    ge-0/0/0 Address

    IP address and prefix length of built-in Ethernet port 0. The interface fe-0/0/0 or ge-0/0/0 is typically used as the management interface for accessing the router. The DHCP client sets this address to 192.168.1.1/24 if no DHCP server is found.

    You must enter the fe-0/0/0 or ge-0/0/0 address on the Quick Configuration Set Up page before you click Apply or OK. If you do not manually configure this address, the DHCP lease is lost and you will lose your connection to the J-Web interface when you click Apply or OK.

    Allow Telnet Access

    Enables remote access to the router with Telnet.

    Allow JUNOScript over Clear-Text Access

    Allows JUNOScript to send unencrypted text to the router over a TCP connection.

    Allow SSH Access

    Enables remote SSH access to the router.

  3. To configure additional interfaces:
    1. Under Quick Configuration, click Interfaces, and then click the interface you want to configure.
    2. On the Interfaces page, click Add to add a logical interface.

      IP addresses are configured on the logical interface.

    3. Optionally, provide a brief description of the interface.
    4. In the two boxes provided, type the IP address (for example, 192.168.1.4) and the number of bits in the subnet mask (for example, 24), click Add, and then click OK or Apply.

    To edit an existing interface, you click the logical interface.

  4. To enable routing protocols, under Quick Configuration click Routing and Protocols.
