Show Configuration On Juniper

Summary

Some notes I took down during some time I spent with a Juniper SRX220. I like to pick up different products and see how they integrate with others. Be that Fortinet, Juniper, Polo Alto, or OPNSense. Helps me become well rounded in my field.

Although I would like to just jump in and configure things. I’d say it’s been nearly a eight years since I’ve touched a Juniper device. Although I loved it. Some things are foreign to me now. So, naturally. I will need to go over the basic navigation and post that navigation as a reference.

In this note, I will be going over how to look at device configuration in multiple ways. There are a few ways you can do this. One being show the full configuration for the device. The other is more specific. It will show you just the things you’re looking for. Such as the interface configuration or the policy configuration for the device.

Showing Configuration

No options will show you the full configuration for the device.

show configuration

This will output the following configuration.

        web-management {
            http {
                interface vlan.0;
            }
            https {
                system-generated-certificate;
                interface vlan.0;
                                

One thing to note is every configuration has the last commit date and time on the top line of the configuration in a comment. This will also provide details regarding which time zone and which user committed the latest change.

This will also provide the JunOS version the configuration file is for.
