Connecting to the SRX650 Services Gateway from J-Web
If you plan to use J-Web to configure the SRX650 Services Gateway, you must connect through one of the built-in Ethernet management ports.
When the services gateway is powered on for the first time, the system looks for a DHCP server. If it does not find one, it assigns an IP address within the 192.168.1.0/24 subnetwork to any devices connected to it.
To connect to J-Web through port ge-0/0/0 on the services gateway, see Figure 1.

- From the management device, such as a desktop
or notebook computer, you use to access J-Web, verify that the address
of the port that you connect to the services gateway is set to one
of the following:
- Ethernet address on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnetwork (other than 192.168.1.1)
- Ethernet address from a DHCP server
- Turn off the power to the management device.
- Plug one end of the Ethernet cable (Figure 2 shows the connector) into the Ethernet port on the management device.
- Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the built-in Ethernet port 0 on the services gateway.
- Power on the services gateway by connecting the power cord or by pressing the Power button on the front of the services gateway.
- Wait until the STATUS LED on the front panel turns solid green.
- Turn on the power to the management device. The services gateway assigns an IP address to the management device within the 192.168.1.0/24 subnetwork if the services gateway is configured to use DHCP.
- From the management device, open a Web browser and enter the IP address 192.168.1.1 in the address field. J-Web appears.
- Configure basic settings for your services gateway.

 | Note: You must manually configure the IP address for the management port you are using before you save your initial configuration. When you save the configuration for the first time, you will lose the connection to the services gateway if you have not manually configured the IP address. If you lose the connection through the management interface, you must connect through the console port. |
