Issues with logging into EX Virtual Chassis via SSH and HTTP

What needs to be checked if we encounter issues with SSH and HTTP in Juniper Ex?

SSH:

If you encounter issues with users not able to log into the switch using SSH, check the following:

  •     SSH is properly configured. root@EX# set system services ssh
  •     No firewall filters for TCP blocking SSH.  root@EX3# show firewall
  •     Make sure the directory /var/empty exists.

SSH access in juniper ex

If the directory is not present, create it as shown below:

%cd /var
%mkdir empty

HTTP/HTTPS:

If you are not able to log in to the switch using HTTP/HTTPS, check the following.

  •     HTTP is properly configured under web management.

root@SW1# set system services web-management http

  •     No firewall filters blocking http traffic.
  •     Clear the cache in the browser

The directory structure for HTTP is as below:

/packages/mnt/jweb-ex-9.5R2.7/jail/var/etc
