The download and installation process for Junos OS Release 10.4 is the same as for
previous Junos OS releases.
If you are not familiar with the download and installation process, follow these steps:
1. Using a Web browser, follow the links to the download URL on the Juniper Networks
Web page. Choose either Canada and U.S. Version or Worldwide Version:
•
https://www.juniper.net/support/csc/swdist-domestic/ (customers in the United
States and Canada)
•
https://www.juniper.net/support/csc/swdist-ww/ (all other customers)
2. Log in to the Juniper Networks authentication system using the username (generally
your e-mail address) and password supplied by Juniper Networks representatives.
3. Download the software to a local host.
4. Copy the software to the routing platform or to your internal software distribution
site.
5. Install the new jinstall package on the routing platform.
NOTE: We recommend that you upgrade all software packages out of
band using the console because in-band connections are lost during the
upgrade process.
Customers in the United States and Canada use the following command:
user@host> request system software add validate reboot
source/jinstall-10.4R1.9-domestic-signed.tgz
All other customers use the following command:
user@host> request system software add validate reboot
source/jinstall-10.4R1.9-export-signed.tgz
Replace source with one of the following values:
•
/pathname—For a software package that is installed from a local directory on the
router.
•
For software packages that are downloaded and installed from a remote location:
•
ftp://hostname/pathname
•
http://hostname/pathname
•
scp://hostname/pathname (available only for Canada and U.S. version)
The validate option validates the software package against the current configuration
as a prerequisite to adding the software package to ensure that the router reboots
successfully. This is the default behavior when the software package being added is
a different release.
