Upload config to juniper
Hey guys, Do any of you have any idea if it's possible to upload configuration from a script (prefix-list updates in this case) to a JunOS device (MX)? For Cisco devices I'm doing it using rcp. Thanks, Florin
I do this with pyexpect for blacklist updating. It works amazingly well. One thing to remember when communicating with the JunOS device is that if you fail to disable the CLI controls, communicating with the device is very difficult. I do something like: import pexpect child = pexpect.spawn ('ssh', ['-p','22','-o','StrictHostKeyChecking=no',"router ip address goes here"], 2) child.sendline("set cli screen-length 0") child.sendline("set cli screen-width 0") < put your commands here to talk to the router > -j On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 5:39 AM, Florin Veres <florin@futurefreedom.ro> wrote:

From config mode use a "load merge" command that specifies a SCP or FTP URL. You'll need to setup SSH keys in advance to do so without an additional password for the device to download the script.
Alternatively... SCP the file to a temporary file on the device then "load merge" the uploaded file, to merge config from the script. Net::SSH::Expect from CPAN to connect via ssh from perl. Something like use Net::SSH::Perl; use Net::SSH::Expect; my $ssh = Net::SSH::Expect->new( host => 'myfavoritehostname.example.com', user => 'blahblahblah', password => '1234', raw_pty => 1); $ssh->login(q[blahblah@myfavoritehostname.example.com's password]); $output1 = $ssh->exec("configure private"); # $blah = $ssh->exec("load merge username@scriptserver.example.com:/path/to/scriptfile_to_load.txt"); print scalar $ssh->exec("show | compare"); # commit -- -JH
Actually if you use the JUNOS api and the reference scripts there are examples to do just this. -----Original Message----- From: Jimmy Hess [mailto:mysidia@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2011 6:31 PM To: Florin Veres Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: Upload config to juniper On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 7:39 AM, Florin Veres <florin@futurefreedom.ro> wrote:

I use the Netconf API and send xml config snippets like so: <configuration> <security> <zones> <security-zone> <name>Untrust</name> <address-book> <address operation="delete"> <name>auto_ip-7</name> <ip-prefix>67.23.7.115/32</ip-prefix> </address> <address-set> <name>demo_inbound_permit</name> <address operation="delete"> <name>auto_ip-7</name> </address> </address-set> </address-book> </security-zone> </zones> </security> </configuration> -----Original Message----- From: Mark Bassett [mailto:mbassett@intelius.com] Sent: Friday, January 28, 2011 5:39 PM To: Jimmy Hess; Florin Veres Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: RE: Upload config to juniper Actually if you use the JUNOS api and the reference scripts there are examples to do just this. -----Original Message----- From: Jimmy Hess [mailto:mysidia@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2011 6:31 PM To: Florin Veres Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: Upload config to juniper On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 7:39 AM, Florin Veres <florin@futurefreedom.ro> wrote:
