Juniper Networks regularly updates the predefined application identification application package database and makes it available on the Juniper Networks website. This package includes a list of known application objects that can be used in Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) policies and AppTrack to match traffic.

The configuration instructions in this topic describes how to download the application identification application package and create a policy, and specify the new policy as the active policy. The download process will also install the application package.

To manually download and update the application package:
user@host> request services application-identification download
To download a specific version of the application package:
user@host>request services application-identification download version version-number
To change the download URL for the application package from configuration mode:
[edit]user@host#set services application-identification download url URL or File Path
Note: If you change the download URL and you want to keep that change, make sure you commit.
To uninstall the application package:
user@host>request services application-identification uninstall
To check the current version of the application package:
show services application-identification version
The application package will now be part of your configuration. From configuration mode in the CLI, enter the show services application-identification command to verify the configuration. For more information, see the Junos OS CLI Reference.
