INSTALLATION:

• host preparation
• Install: step-by-step-guide
  • based on : https://codingpackets.com/blog/juniper-vmx-vagrant-libvirt-box-install
• Troubleshooting: troubleshooting-vqfx-vmx-install.docx
• Provision vagrant file with ansible : see this file tree (note we do 1 vagrant up & then 2 run.ansible.sh) : root_vmx-test.tar.gz

KEY POINTS:

• If we use the same instance of vmx multiple times, irb macs with be the same and communication won't happen unless we do things like this:

set interfaces irb unit 400 mac 00:05:86:ce:b0:03

TODO:

• Review project documentation
• libvirtd assigns the fxp address via dhcp but also gives a default route (ie 0/0 via fxp). we need to fix this
  • option1: play with dhcp kvm settings so it doesn't give a def route
  • option2: automate this: 1. grab ip in fxp0 2. remove dhcp config from fxp0 3. add static route (see below).
  • option3: do it manually:

[edit interfaces fxp0 unit 0 family inet]
-       dhcp;
[edit interfaces fxp0 unit 0 family inet]
+       address 192.168.121.87/24;
[edit routing-options static]
     route 10.8.40.0/23 { ... }
+    route 192.0.0.0/8 next-hop 192.168.121.1;
