Router Configuration
Creating Backup of Config File
This is relatively easy and should be done once every week or two or before and after changes are made to the router :
-
Click Configuration → Update → Config File
Click Save to File
You should have a ~cfg.txt file
Move this file to Dropbox/Errigal Shared Documents/Router Config - where the other router configs are and rename the file as appropriate
Apply Config File to Router
This is relatively easy and should be done once every week or two or before and after changes are made to the router :
-
Click Configuration → Update → Config File
Ensure Replace Current Configuration is check and that Merge is NOT checked
Choose the appropriate config file you want to upload
Click apply and click yes to every pop up you get (should be about 3)
Wait for the router to restart and do some basic sanity checks that router turns on and you're assigned an appropriate IP etc.
Adding a custom service/custom port forward
SSH to router
The router in the Ireland Office is a Juniper NetScreen NS5GT.
Its public ip address is 212.17.60.121
Its private ip address is 10.5.5.1
The only way to access the router config from the UNTRUST side (via the public ip address) is via SSH through port 3774.
The router can be accessed via the WebUI from the TRUST + UNTRUST interface (private or public IP) in addition to SSH on the same port as the UNTRUST.
ssh errigaladmin@10.5.5.1 -p3774
