Installing Software on EX-series Switches (CLI Procedure)

You can upgrade software packages on a single fixed-configuration switch, on an individual member of a virtual chassis, or for all members of a virtual chassis.

To install software upgrades on an EX-series switch with the CLI:

  1. Download the software package as described in Downloading Software Packages from Juniper Networks.
  2. Copy the software package to the switch. We recommend that you use FTP to copy the file to the /var/tmp directory.
  3. To install the new package on the switch, enter the following command:
      user@switch> request system software add source [member member_id] reboot

    Include the member option to install the software package on only one member of a virtual chassis. Other members of the virtual chassis are not affected. To install the software on all members of the virtual chassis, do not include the member option.

    Replace source with one of the following paths:

    • For a software package that is installed from a local directory on the switch—/pathname/package-name, .
    • For software packages that are downloaded and installed from a remote location:
      • ftp://hostname/pathname/package-name
      • http://hostname/pathname/package-name

      Where package-name is, for example, jinstall-ex-9.0R2-domestic.tgz
