Network Router User Manual

Table 38 on page 103 shows the mapping of the chassis cluster ports.
Table 38: Mapping the Chassis Cluster Ports on an SRX210 Services Gateway
Management InterfaceEthernet Ports on SRX210 Services Gateway
fxp0 (management port)fe-0/0/6
fxp1 (control port)fe-0/0/7
JUNOS Software automatically creates the fxp0 and fxp1 interfaces on these ports
when the SRX210 Services Gateway is operating in chassis cluster mode.

Understanding Management Access
Telnet allows you to connect to the services gateway and access the CLI to execute
commands from a remote system. The Telnet CLI connections are not encrypted
and therefore can be intercepted.
NOTE: Telnet access to the root user is prohibited. You must use more secure
methods, such as SSH, to log in as root.
SSH provides the following features:
■ Allows you to connect to the device and access the CLI to execute commands
from a remote system
■ Encrypts traffic so that it cannot be intercepted (unlike Telnet)
■ Can be configured so that connections are authenticated by a digital certificate
■ Uses public–private key technology for both connection and authentication
The SSH client software must be installed on the machine where the client application
runs. If the SSH private key is encrypted (for greater security), the SSH client must
be able to access the passphrase used to decrypt the key.
For information about obtaining SSH software, see http://www.ssh.com and
http://www.openssh.com.
If you are using a JUNOScript server to configure and monitor devices, you can
activate cleartext access on the device to allow unencrypted text to be sent directly
over a Transmission Line Protocol (TCP) connection without using any additional
protocol (such as SSH, SSL, or Telnet). For more information about the JUNOScript
application programming interface (API), see the JUNOScript API Guide.
