A: The vMX deployment scripts typically set up console ports for both VCP and VFP. You can connect using virsh (e.g., virsh console vmx-vcp ) or through the console feature of your virtualization manager. Consult the vmx.conf file for the specific console ports configured.
Once your vMX is up and running, you can connect to it and begin configuration. The default username is with no password. From there, enter configuration mode:
The script will build the Libvirt XML definitions, instantiate the disk images, link the internal console ports, and boot both virtual machines simultaneously. Step 5: Verify the Operation download vmx-bundle 17.1r1.8.tgz
Run the installation script provided by Juniper to build the virtual instances: ./vmx.sh --bind-forwarding-infra ./vmx.sh --start Use code with caution. 4. Verify the Status Ensure both virtual machines are active and communicating: ./vmx.sh --status Use code with caution. Verifying the Junos Installation

Select "vMX" from the product dropdown menu. Choose "Junos OS" as your software type. Filter the version history list to locate the 17.1 release branch. 3. Select the Correct Package
Extracting the vmx-bundle-17.1r1.8.tgz file reveals a structured directory required by orchestration tools like Ansible or native KVM installation scripts. The bundle typically includes:
: Users frequently download this bundle to simulate complex service provider networks. In EVE-NG, the bundle is unzipped, and the images are moved into specific directories like /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/vmxvcp-17.1R1.8-domestic-VCP/ .
