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 :
- Login to the UI : https://10.5.5.1/index.html
- 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 :
- Login to the UI : https://10.5.5.1/index.html - or whatever the URL is
- 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
For a UI version please check : Create a New Forwarding Rule on the Router (Juniper Netscreen Router)
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
