Junos Olive.12.1 is available for download on the internet as a virtual appliance in an Open Virtualization Format Archive (OVA).
I'm using Linux Mint 17 Qiana and Oracle VirtualBox version 4.3.22r98236 Lab topology for testing three juniper routers For more details and capabilities of JUNOS Olive check this excellent website.įor this Lab setup I want to uses three Juniper routers in the topology they appear below. Methods vary from extremely easy to difficult ( if you want to do it from scratch using FreeBSD - JUNOS is based on FreeBSD kernel.)īelow you can find instructions in 5 steps on how to install JUNOS Olive 12.1 in VirtualBox on Linux. Googling around you will find different methods either using VirtualBox, VMware or Qemu.
Of course best way is to have the actual Juniper router since many functions cannot be simulated/emulated. If you don't have a real Juniper equipment, there is way to practice with JUNOS.
