Benefits

Network operations

Network discovery

and inventory

management

• Network and device discovery

• Near real-time network inventory

• Dedicated socket connection to each device

• Inventory management for automated collection of inventory data from Juniper

devices.

• Inventory views of physical and logical inventory of supported devices, allowing users

to generate reports and track locations, availability, and deployment of hardware and

software

• Automated synchronization between hardware inventory, interface information, and

device configuration of the device

• Multi-target specification (IP address, IP address range, IP subnet, host name

• Supports Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security

(FCAPS) network management framework, and provides total

management of network elements

Includes autodiscovery for improved asset management and network

planning

• Enables secure notifications and action for each configuration change

• Detailed view of all hardware inventory (power supplies, chassis cards,

fans, part numbers, etc.) for all managed devices to enable intelligent

cataloging for effective system upgrades and modifications

Topology

• Automated discovery of network topology (devices and interconnections)

• Tools for visualizing the discovered topology

• Tabular view for device-specific details

• Topology view for broad network visibility

• Semantic zooming for fine-grained device view

• Flexible network visualization options for simplifying network

operations

Software image

management

• Centralized device software installation for all managed devices

• Enables device images to be uploaded from local file system, and deployed onto a

device or onto multiple devices of the same device family in a single workflow

• Image verification for accuracy

• Provides the ability to do remote software upgrades and in-service

software upgrades

• Enables automated upgrade planning, scheduling, downloading, and

monitoring of device images

• Reduces errors with the use of a recommended image

Configuration

templates

• Device configuration templates that provide the ability to design and push any

configuration to a device or group of devices

• Schema-driven GUI for template creation to enable granular control

• Entry forms to create template definitions

• Audit log that captures all template deployment operations

• Allows administrators to design, validate, and push configurations to

device or device group

• Enables deployment of common configuration across multiple devices

• Allows operators to manipulate all knobs on a given device

Configuration

editor

• Configuration editor that provides the ability to view, edit, and delete all aspects of a

device’s configuration

• Allows operators to quickly view and modify any portion of a device’s

configuration

Configuration file

management

• Ability to view a given device’s configuration and edit, add, or delete portions of that

configuration

• Schema-driven

• Up-to-date view of device’s configuration

• Ability to view, edit, version control, compare, back up, and restore network

configuration files

• Simplified configuration management to optimize network performance

and health

• Instant visibility into network configuration and performance correlation

• Entry forms to create template definition and bulk modify

configurations

• Administrators able to compare different configuration versions either

for the same or different devices

Junos OS script

management

• Configuration and management of Junos OS automation scripts, including import/

export, view/edit, version control, deploy/delete, and verify script execution

• Centralized management of all Junos OS automation scripts

Full rapid

application

development

framework

• Includes a common infrastructure, a tool kit with core services and user interface

widgets, and integration APIs

• Comprehensive development environment to rapidly create and

monetize applications

• Easy integration into operations support systems (OSS) and data center

ecosystems

• Ability to create mashups for market-specific solutions
