Add the vSRX VM to the VirtualBox VM list in preferences.Įdit->Preferences->VirtualBox->VirtualBox VMs->Newģ. Now to do some more testing, I am going to use GNS3 and add the vSRX in.Ģ. First thing is to rename the VM to something more recognizable like juniper.ffp-12.1X47-D15.4. If you look in Virtual Box now, you will see a new VM with a really long strange name. Be patient, the configuration might take a minute to connect to the VM.Ĥ. Try it out by logging in as root with default password Juniper. Once it finishes downloading, booting and configuring, it will print out the details on how you can SSH to the vSRX. Create the Juniper Firefly Perimeter VM vagrant init juniper/ffp-12.1X47-D15.4 Create a directory to store the vagrant files. Juniper Firefly Perimeter 12.1X47-D15.4 from Vagrantġ.Note: These instructions are run on this system. Many of the steps below were taken from my previous post with a few minor modifications and the replacement of the VM creation steps. After installing Vagrant it was as simple as two Vagrant commands and I had my VM up and running. I had not used Vagrant before today, so it was a bit of a learning curve about what this tool does, but turned out to be very simple for what I needed it for.

Fortunately, I found another extremely simple way to create the VM in only a few steps, and that was Vagrant. Also, converting VM disk images was a pain.

It worked great, but some steps where quite difficult for some users and there seemed to be many that had issues with getting interfaces to appear and connect.

In a previous post, I showed how to create a Virtual Box VM of a Juniper Firefly Perimeter.
