Junos Space User Interface Overview

The Junos Space UI is designed to look and behave in a way that most users are familiar with. The left tree structure facilitates navigation and the right pane displays information about the workspace or task selected in the left pane. Multiple users can access the UI through Web browsers concurrently. All users have access to the same current information in the same system wide database. Access to tasks and objects is controlled by permissions assigned to each user.

The Junos Space UI is common to Junos Space Network Management Platform and

Junos Space applications. The information displayed on the Junos Space UI changes according to the application you select. The examples shown here are from the Junos

Space Platform UI. Other applications may have design variations.

When you log in to Junos Space Platform, the previously configured home page is displayed. The Junos Space Platform Dashboard, which is the default home page, is shown in

Figure 1 on page 16

3— Domain Switcher

4— Global Action Icons

5— Junos Space Dashboard

6— Task Tree

This display contains three main parts: a task tree on the left, which is always available; a main window on the right, whose content changes as you select items from the task tree; and a banner across the top, which offers the date and time, the domain to which you are logged in, global search, and several icon buttons for frequently used actions.

These parts are described in the following sections.

Main Window on page 19

Junos Space Banner

The Junos Space banner, as indicated in

Figure 1 on page 16 , displays the date and server

time in the active time zone, the domain to which you are logged in, global search, and the global actions icons. This banner is always present. For more information about global search and domain features, see

“Using Global Search” on page 65

and the Domains

Overview topic (in the Junos Space Network Management Platform Workspaces Feature

Guide).

NOTE: If you access the Junos Space Platform UI in two tabs of the same browser with two different domains selected and access the same page in both tabs, the information displayed on the page is based on the latest domain selected. To view pages that are accessible only in the Global domain, ensure that you are in the Global domain in the most recent tab in which you are accessing the UI.

Chapter 1: Overview

Table 3 on page 17

describes the global action icons on the right side of the banner.

Task Tree

The task tree on the left side of the display is always present and facilitates navigation in the Junos Space Platform UI. As shown in

Figure 1 on page 16

, when you first log in, the

Application Selector list displays Network Management Platform by default. You can drop this list down to see all the Junos Space applications available on your system. (You can install other applications by using the Applications task group, as described in

Managing Junos Space Applications Overview in the Junos Space Network Management

Platform Workspaces Feature Guide.)

You can collapse the task tree to the left by clicking the double left arrow buttons in its header, and reexpand it by clicking the double right arrow buttons.

Below the application name is the word Dashboard, selected by default. It indicates that what you see in the right-hand window is the dashboard for the current application—in this case, Junos Space Platform. The dashboard shows several measures of overall system health.

Below the Dashboard item in the tree is a list of the workspaces available in the current application. This list forms the top level of the task tree. If you select a different application from the Applications list, you see the workspace list change. This topic describes the workspaces for Junos Space Platform; for the workspaces in other applications, see the documentation for those applications.

The workspaces in the Junos Space Platform are described at a high level in

You can expand any of these workspaces by clicking the expansion symbol (+) to the left of its name. When you do so, the next level of the task tree for that workspace opens.

Some items at this second level may also be expandable subgroups.

You can expand as many workspaces or task groups as you like; previously expanded ones remain open until you collapse them. The design of the task tree enables you to jump from area to area within an application with the minimum number of selections.

Main Window

When you log in to Junos Space Platform, the main window shows the application dashboard by default. If you have set another home page, the main window displays that page. See

“Setting and Accessing the Junos Space Home Page” on page 25

for more information.

When you select a workspace name (as opposed to expanding it), the main window changes and displays graphical statistics for that workspace. This display is called

Workspace Statistics. It is similar in functionality to the overall system dashboard, but it pertains only to that workspace. See

“Workspace Statistics Page Overview” on page 46

for more information.

Selecting the name of a task group or task within the workspace causes the main window to display an inventory of the objects managed in tabular format. See

“Inventory Landing

Check Box

You can use check boxes to select or deselect an option. For example, to ensure that there is at least one uppercase character when a user creates or modifies a password, an administrator can select the At least one uppercase character check box (as shown in

Figure 3 on page 29 ) on the Administration > Applications > Network Management

Platform > Modify Application Settings (from the Actions menu) > Password > Advanced

Settings page. On a page, you can select one or more check boxes.

Figure 3: Check Box

Selecting All Objects on a Single Page

With Junos Space, you can select all objects on an inventory landing page by selecting the check box that is displayed adjacent to the first column header. For example, you can select the check box (see

Figure 4 on page 29 ) adjacent to the Name column on the

Device Management inventory landing page to select all devices displayed on this page.

Figure 4: Check Box Adjacent to the First Column Header

Selecting All Objects Across Multiple Pages

For certain tasks, you can select an appropriate check box in the Junos Space UI to select all objects spread across multiple pages. With this feature, you do not need to select each object individually on multiple pages.

For example, when you want to assign all devices to a domain, you can select the Select all items across all pages check box on the Domains page at the time of domain creation, which selects all devices (indicated by the check mark next to the devices as shown in

Figure 5 on page 30 ). However, after all the devices are selected, you can deselect one

or more devices, if needed.

User Interface Guide

Figure 5: Check Box to Select All Objects Across Multiple Pages: Domains

Page

Though some pages support selection of all objects across multiple pages, you may not be able to deselect any of these objects after the selection. For example, when you select the Select All across Pages check box when backing up the configuration files (on the

Configuration Files > Config Files Management > Backup Configuration Files page), you cannot deselect any of the selected devices (see

Figure 6 on page 30 ). The configuration

of all devices are backed up.

Today on the Calendar control.

Figure 7: Date Picker

Drop-down List

With a drop-down list, you can select from a list of values (see

Figure 8 on page 31 ).

Clicking the arrow next to the list box opens the list. Junos Space also provides an editable drop-down list, which is a combination of a drop-down list and an editable text box (see

Figure 9 on page 32 ). You can enter the first few letters in the text box to narrow down

the list of values.

Figure 8: Drop-down List

User Interface Guide

Figure 9: Editable Drop-down List

Option Button

Using an option button, you can make a single choice among a set of mutually exclusive, related options. Only one button at a time can be selected from the available options.

The default option is selected (see

Figure 10 on page 32

Figure 10: Option Button

Search Field

Use the Search text field on the right of the inventory page banner to look for specific objects to display on the inventory landing page. To find objects (within columns) on this page, enter the search criteria in the Search field (see

Figure 11 on page 33 ). This field

supports the same search syntax as the global search field (see

“Using Global Search” on page 65 ). For example, enter “os:junos AND down” to find devices that are down on

the Device Management inventory landing page. This feature is more powerful than the column filter because it allows you to use Boolean expressions.

Clicking the magnifying glass at the right of the search field displays a list of objects matching the search criteria. If you press the down arrow after entering the search criteria in the search field , a list of search options is displayed. When you select a search option from the list, only those inventory items that are specific to that search option are displayed on the page.

You can create tags to categorize objects. For more information about tagging objects to select similar objects, see Tagging an Object (in the Junos Space Network Management

Platform Workspaces Feature Guide).

To display all the inventory objects on the page again, clear the contents of the Search field and press Enter.

NOTE: You must append "*" if you want to search using partial keywords.

Otherwise, the search might return zero matches.

X509 Cert File fields in

Figure 15 on page 34 .

User Interface Guide

• Choose a value from a drop-down list of values when you enter the first few letters in the text box (see

Figure 16 on page 35 ).

Use the label associated with a text box to identify the purpose of a text box. You can gain additional information about some of the text boxes from the information icons that are associated with the text boxes ( ). For example, the Temporary Password and

Password text boxes have information icons associated with them as shown in

Figure 15 on page 34 . You must mouse over the information icon for Junos Space to

display information about the text box with which the information icon is associated. For example, when you mouse over the information icon associated with the Password text box, the conditions that must be met when you enter a password are displayed.

NOTE: Not all text boxes in Junos Space have information icons associated with them.

Scrolling Controls

Junos Space Network Management Platform provides horizontal and vertical scroll bars on inventory landing pages, which you can use to scroll the contents of the page by clicking one of the scroll arrows, clicking an area in the scroll bar, or dragging the scroll bar. For example, to view data that is at the bottom of the Junos Space page, you can drag the vertical scroll bar toward the bottom of the page.

Figure 20 on page 37

shows the horizontal scroll bar that enables you to scroll horizontally through the Junos Space page allowing you to view data that is on the left or right.

Figure 20: Horizontal Scroll Bar

Sizing Controls

You can use the minimize, maximize, and close buttons of your browser window to hide the Junos Space application window, enlarge the window to fill the whole screen, and close the window, respectively.

NOTE: Minimize the window when you want the Junos Space application window to be temporarily out of the way instead of closing it.

Close the window when you have finished working on it and there is no need for you to return.

To resize a window (make it smaller or bigger), point to any of the window's borders or corners. When the mouse pointer changes to a double-headed arrow, drag the border or corner to shrink or enlarge the window. You cannot resize a window that is already maximized.

Junos Space displays an error message to alert you about a problem that has already occurred along with a recommendation, if any, to resolve the problem. For example, in

Figure 23 on page 38 , the error message alerts you that the Junos Space UI may be out

of sync with the Junos Space server and that you need to refresh the browser window

(which is likely to resolve the issue).

Figure 23: Error Message Dialog Box

Confirmation Messages

Junos Space often displays a confirmation dialog box, which is a modal dialog box that asks you whether you want to proceed with the action that you initiated from Junos Space

Network Management Platform. A confirmation dialog box typically consists of a question and two or more responses. You have to select a response and based on your choice

Chapter 2: Working in the Junos Space User Interface

Junos Space completes or cancels the task that you initiated. For example, when you initiate a database backup operation, you are asked to confirm whether you want to perform the backup operation because this operation may have an impact on Junos

Space performance. In

Figure 24 on page 39

, clicking OK initiates the database backup operation, whereas clicking Cancel closes the current page.

Figure 24: Confirmation Dialog Box

Information Messages

An information message communicates some sort of information to you pertaining to your current activity and appears in a modal dialog box. For example, when you choose to proceed with the database backup operation, Junos Space displays an information message containing a job ID, which you can click to know whether the backup operation is a success or a failure (see

Figure 25 on page 39 ).

Figure 25: Information Dialog Box

Standard Icons in Messages

Icons that are associated with various messages help you assess the situation at a glance and decide what action to take. If the severity level of the message is high, which is usually indicated by the Error icon, revisit the past action and make suitable corrections (for example, enter missing information in a mandatory field) before you proceed to the next step.

Inventory Landing Page Overview

In the Junos Space Network Management Platform UI, you navigate to an inventory page by selecting an application, expanding an application workspace, then selecting a management task. For example, to view the Device Management inventory page, select

Devices > Device Management.

The inventory pages display information related to managed objects for a particular task group or task in tabular format. The fields that are displayed are different for different inventory pages, depending on the task group that you selected.

For each managed object, specific data associated with it is stored in the Junos Space

Platform database. For example, in the case of devices, device name, interfaces, OS version, platform, IP address, connection, managed status, and so on are stored.

Inventory pages enable you to view and manipulate managed objects individually or collectively. Managed objects include devices, logs, users, jobs, clients, software, licenses, and so on. You can organize your view to display only those objects that you want to see, in the way that you want to see them.

You can select an object or objects by selecting the check box to the left of each object on the inventory page. You can select one, several, or all objects and perform actions on them using the shortcut menu or the Actions menu. Selecting the check box to the left in the first column of the column header row selects or deselects all items. The objects that you select and on which you perform an action remain selected.

NOTE: The function and implementation of individual inventory pages depends on the Junos Space Platform application design.

Filter Submenus

On many inventory pages, you can use the Filter submenu to temporarily hide all entries in the table that do not match criteria that you specify. This feature lets you quickly find and evaluate the table entries of interest.

Many of the columns in Junos Space inventory page tables permit filtering. To know whether or not a column allows filtering of data, click the down arrow next to the column name. If the Filter submenu appears, then that column supports filtering of data. The criteria that are available for you to filter on depend on the selected column. You can create filters that combine criteria from more than one column.

User Interface Guide

Whenever you filter a table, Junos Space Platform displays the filter criteria, including the columns being filtered, above the table.

Junos Space Platform displays a red X to the left of the filter criteria above the table. You can clear the filter and restore the table to its original view by clicking the X.

Figure 38 on page 52

shows a typical Filter submenu for a date column.

Working with Objects on an Inventory Page

To initiate an action on the objects that are available on an inventory page, you can use:

•

Toolbar Icons on page 55

•

Actions Menu and Shortcut Menu on page 55

Toolbar Icons

Almost all inventory landing pages provide a toolbar containing icons that provide easy access to frequently used tasks. While some icons are common across inventory landing pages such as the Display Quick View icon (which displays a small window summarizing data about the selected object), most icons are specific to an inventory landing page.

For example, in

Figure 39 on page 55

, the Modify User icon is specific to the User Accounts inventory landing page.

Figure 39: Toolbar Icons

Actions Menu and Shortcut Menu

You can perform actions on one or more selected items on an inventory page by using the Actions menu, or by right-clicking the items to invoke the shortcut menu. To use the

Actions menu, select one or more objects, select an action or subgroup of actions from the Actions menu. (Note that the subgroup has an arrowhead next to its name.) For

User Interface Guide example, to view the physical interfaces of a device, select that device on the Device

Management inventory page, open the Actions menu, expand the Device Inventory subgroup, and select View Physical Inventory.

You can also select one or more items on the inventory page, then right-click. The shortcut menu appears and you can select an action or subgroup of actions.

NOTE: If you are using Mozilla Firefox earlier versions, the Advanced JavaScript

Settings might disable the shortcut menu.

To ensure that you can use the shortcut menu:

In Mozilla Firefox, select Tools > Options to display the Options dialog box.

In the Options dialog box, click the Content tab.

Click Advanced to display the Advanced JavaScript Settings dialog box.

Select the Disable or replace context menus option.

Click OK in the Advanced JavaScript Settings dialog box.

Click OK in the Options dialog box.

If you are using newer versions of Mozilla Firefox, it may not be necessary to perform the preceding steps. By default, you need not change any of the

Firefox settings. But, if you have changed the settings or for some reason the shortcut menus do not appear properly, then you need to perform the following steps in the recent versions:

Disable or replace context menus —Deselect this option to prevent webpages from disabling or changing the Firefox shortcut menu.

In about:config(URL): dom.event.contextmenu.enabled, set it to false to block sites. The default value is true.

Exporting Data

You can export data that is displayed on certain inventory landing pages such as the MD5

Validation Result inventory page (in the Images workspace) as well as export job details pertaining to certain tasks initiated from Junos Space Platform. For example, you can export job details related to device discovery, staging and deployment of device images, and so on.

NOTE: Not all jobs in Junos Space support the export of job details.

The data is exported as a comma-separated file (CSV) to your computer, allowing you to process the data offline. For example, you can use this data to identify devices on which staging or deployment of an image failed.

Chapter 2: Working in the Junos Space User Interface

To export the data that is displayed on the MD5 Validation Result page as a CSV file:

On the Junos Space Platform UI, select Images and Scripts > Images.

The Images page displays the list of device images.

Select a device image.

Select MD5 Validation Result from the Actions menu.

The MD5 Validation Result page displays the results of verification tasks.

Click Export to CSV from the Actions menu.

You are prompted to save the file.

Click OK on the File Save dialog box to save the file to your local file system.

After you save the file, to return to the MD5 Validation Result page, click the [X] icon on the Exporting Validation Results dialog box to close it.

Navigate to the location where you saved the file and open the file by using an application such as Microsoft Excel. If you are opening this file as an Excel workbook, then filter the data for the Failed status in the Checksum Result column to identify devices in which the images are not staged completely. From the filtered data, see the Device Image Name column to obtain information about the images that are not staged completely.

To export the image deployment job details as a CSV file:

On the Junos Space Platform UI, select Jobs > Job Management.

Double-click the image deployment job whose details you want to export as a CSV file.

Click Export as CSV.

You are prompted to save the file.

Click OK on the File Save dialog box to save the file to your local file system.

To return to the Job Management page, click OK on the Exporting Device Image Job dialog box.

Use an application such as Microsoft Excel to open the downloaded file from your computer. If you are using Microsoft Excel, you can filter data in the Status column to identify the devices on which the deployment of images failed.

Junos Space User Interface Overview on page 15

User Interface Guide

Global Search Overview

The global search field on the Junos Space Network Management Platform UI helps you to quickly locate objects within Junos Space Platform. When you search for an object by using global search, Junos Space Platform performs a full-text search operation for objects within Junos Space Platform, and displays the matches found.

The search results are filtered on the basis of your Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) permissions, such as the tasks that a user is allowed to perform and the domains to which a user is assigned. For example, users are shown results only for tasks for which they have the appropriate permissions or results related to domains to which the users are assigned. For more information about RBAC permissions, see the Role-Based Access

Control Overview topic (in the Junos Space Network Management Platform Workspaces

Feature Guide).

The search is performed and the results are displayed based on how the Junos Space

Platform objects are indexed.

Table 12 on page 59

lists the indexed objects on which you can perform a search operation by using the global search feature.

Junos Space Platform monitors its database at regular intervals to identify new objects that need to be indexed. The default interval is set to five seconds.

NOTE:

• An administrator can configure the refresh interval from the Administration workspace. For more information about configuring the refresh interval, see the Index auto update interval in seconds parameter in Modifying Junos

Space Network Management Platform Settings (in the Junos Space Network

Management Platform Workspaces Feature Guide).

• An administrator can also refresh the search index manually from the

Administration workspace by navigating to Administration > Applications

> Network Management Platform and selecting Refresh Search Index from the Actions menu.

The global search operation also supports query expressions. You can search for phrases and multiple terms. The default operator for multiple terms is the OR operator.

User Interface Guide

NOTE:

When you enter a query expression, be aware of the following:

• You must add a back slash “\” if you want to use the following special characters in the search text:

+ && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ “ ~ * ? : \

• Field names are case-sensitive. To search within a specific field, the search syntax is:

“<Indexed field or column name>:<search text>”

For example, if you have a few systems running on Junos OS 12.3 Release

4.5, then “os: 12.3R4.5” returns search results, whereas “OS: 12.3R4.5” does not return search results. This is because the field name that is indexed is

“os” and not “OS.” Another example to search for information pertaining to the Junos EX Series devices is to enter “deviceFamily:junos-ex” in the

Search field.

• If you want to search for a term that includes a space, enclose the term within double quotation marks.

For example, to search for all devices that are synchronized (that is, In

Sync), enter “In Sync” in the Search field.

• You must append "*" if you want to search using partial keywords.

Otherwise, the search returns 0 (zero) matches or hits.

Table 13 on page 64

provides examples of query expressions that you can enter in the

Search field.

Table 13: Query Expressions in the Search Field

Query Expression Matches Objects That Contain snmp snmp ntp snmp OR ntp snmp AND ntp snmp snmp or ntp snmp or ntp snmp and ntp protocol:snmp protocol:snmp AND NOT subject:snmp

(snmp OR ntp) AND http description:“http server” snmp in the protocol field snmp in the protocol field but not in the subject field http and the terms—snmp or ntp

Exact phrase “http server” in the description field

Chapter 2: Working in the Junos Space User Interface

Table 13: Query Expressions in the Search Field (continued)

Using Global Search

You can use the global search feature of Junos Space Network Management Platform to find objects within Junos Space Platform.

User Interface Guide

To search for objects using the global search feature:

In the Search field, located at the top of the Junos Space Platform UI, type the search criteria and press Enter. (Alternatively, you can click the magnifying glass icon adjacent to the Search field.)

If none of the objects in Junos Space Platform match your search criteria, the following error message is displayed:

No matching results were found. Please enter different search criteria.

If any of the objects match the search criteria, the results appear on the search results page, which is divided into two areas. The area on the left displays the filters that you can use to refine your search results, and the area on the right displays the search results with a short description about each result.

The search criteria that you typed are highlighted in the search results. Each search result may also provide a URL to help you navigate to the corresponding object on the inventory landing page.

NOTE: When the search results are displayed, an informational message about how to hide the search results is displayed in a dialog box.

Perform one of the following actions:

• To prevent the informational message from appearing again, ensure that the Don’t show again check box is selected and click OK. The Don’t show again check box is selected by default.

• To allow the informational message to continue appearing, clear the

Don’t show again check box and click OK.

(Optional) Click the URL provided with the search result to navigate to the inventory landing page of the desired object.

(Optional) To filter the search results, select the relevant category or subcategories displayed on the left of the search results page.

(Optional) To view the previous search results, click View Last Search Results. However, if this is your first search after logging in to Junos Space, then this link is not displayed.

To dismiss the search results page or to navigate to the inventory landing page from which you performed the search, click one of the following:

• The Hide Search Results button

• The left navigation tree or any of the global action icons

• The close [X] button on the top-right of the search results panel

User Interface Guide

Changing Your Password on Junos Space

After you log in to Junos Space Network Management Platform, you can change your password using the User Settings icon on the Junos Space banner. You do not require any particular Junos Space role to change your password.

Starting with Junos Space Platform Release 12.1, Junos Space has implemented a default standard for passwords that is compliant with the industry standard for security.

NOTE:

• When you upgrade to Junos Space Platform Release 12.1 or later, the default standard takes effect immediately. All local users receive password expiration messages the first time they log in to Junos Space after the update.

• You need to have set your local password to be able to change it. If you do not have a local password set, you will not be able to set or change it.

• You can use the User Settings icon to change only your local password. The change does not affect any passwords that an administrator might have configured for you on a remote authentication server.

To change your local password:

On the Junos Space Platform UI, click the User Settings icon on the right side of the

Junos Space banner.

The Change User Settings dialog box appears.

In the Old Password text box, enter your old password.

NOTE: Mouse over the information icon (small blue i) next to the New

Password text box to view the rules for password creation. For more information about the password rules, see Modifying Junos Space Network

Management Platform Settings.

In the New Password text box, enter your new password.

In the Confirm Password text box, enter your new password again to confirm it.

NOTE: The fields on the X.509 Certificate tab are applicable when you want to use certificate-based authentication. If you are using password-based authentication, you can ignore these fields. For more information about certificate-based authentication, see the Certificate

Management Overview topic in the Junos Space Network Management

Platform Workspaces Feature Guide.

Chapter 2: Working in the Junos Space User Interface

(Optional) Select the Manage objects from all assigned domains check box on the

Object Visibility tab to view and manage objects from all the domains that you are assigned to.

Click OK.

You are logged out of the system. To log in to Junos Space again, you must use your new password. Other sessions logged in with the same username are unaffected until the next login.
