Basic Cisco and Juniper router configurations for remote management
This is the minimum configuration necessary to configure Cisco and Juniper routers for remote management via SSH. I use the following base template configurations to enable IP via DHCP and SSH remote access for the lab environment.
Cisco pastable:
hostname csr100v
ip domain-name example.com
aaa new-model
aaa authentication login default local
aaa authorization exec default local
crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
username jemurray privilege 15 password MyPassword
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
ip address dhcp
no shut
ip ssh version 2
line vty 0 4
privilege level 15
transport input ssh
line vty 5 15
privilege level 15
transport input ssh
Juniper pastable:
set system host-name juniper-mx
set system root-authentication plain-text-password
set system login user jemurray authentication plain-text-password
set interfaces ge-0/0/7 unit 0 family inet dhcp
set system services ssh
