juniper SRX upgrade via ftp

Here's a simple and effective means for upgrading a  SRX via the cli and using ftp. You can even probably script this onboard and run the script against your ftpserver.

1st I enabled ftp-daemon on my macbook



sudo -s launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist


 Since my  main computer is a mac.

2nd, we execute the request command and specify the ftp-url

3rd and lastly you will reboot the system

as you can see the upgrade failed due to the image and platform.


I found it funny that if you try to use a  ftp-ipv6 url , it does not work;

ftp://kfelix:mypasswordhere1@[2001:db8:8::6a5b:35ff:feab:3d27]/junos-srxsme-12.3X48-D15.4-domestic.tgz

check your  username/password  to ensure the credentials and file is correct
