Hi,

 

I have just been thrown a curve ball in the middle of SNMP Testing 🙂

 

I have been asked to enable the REST API on the MX240 routers we have. Okay, no problem. Juniper has great resources for this and a great example....

Problem I have is the following:

 

Set system servies rest http addresses xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

 

It does not matter what address I put in there I get the following error:

[edit]
Clive@THW-CORE-01# set system services rest http addresses [10.1.100.10]

[edit]
Clive@THW-CORE-01# commit
error: rest-api: Address 10.1.100.10:3000 unavailable
error: commit failed: daemon file propagation failed

 

I have tried searching for why this occurs as it should be available on the MX240s but cannot find why.

 

Any help appreciated please

 

 

Are you using fxp0 address?

Point to be remember:

1.       set chassis aggregated-devices ethernet device-count-----------should be configured
2.       AE should be up up
3.       The IP address defined as the addresses in rest http configuration should be present in the " show route x.x.x.x" as direct /local router via the same interface.

Please try this and let us know the rsult.

To add more, You can use any interface IP but it should be unique on that box.
