    Hi everyone,

    My company recently purchased a Juniper MX5-T with these software characteristics attached. Before putting it online, I would like to update it. I know that if a google this, I'll have a thousand links. But I would like your opinions about this process because I do not have any idea about Juniper. 
    root> show version
    Model: mx5-t
    JUNOS Base OS boot [12.1R5.5]
    JUNOS Base OS Software Suite [12.1R5.5]
    JUNOS Kernel Software Suite [12.1R5.5]
    JUNOS Packet Forwarding Engine Support (MX80) [12.1R5.5]
    JUNOS Online Documentation [12.1R5.5]
    JUNOS Routing Software Suite [12.1R5.5]
    ​

    Thank you!

    You'll need to register your account on the support portal and the device on the support site.

    This will be the download area for the mx versions.

    https://support.juniper.net/support/downloads/?f=mx

    Support also has a document for recommended version of Junos by platform.

    https://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB21476

    Generally you can jump 3 Junos major versions which is the number before the period.  So in your case jumping from 12 to 15 recommended is supported

    Hi Spuluka, thank you for your answer, but now I have more doubts jjji
    you said that I need to jump in 3 steps  (12 to 15, 15 to 19 ) or just only 3 steps. I ask you because one of the links you sent me shows this.

    and if I update the S.O, I will lose the licenses?

    thanks for helping me, I appreciate! !

    I would like to buy a one year subscription of 100M I have visited other distributors it costs about 400$.
    When I get this license I have the 100M bandwidth to surf the net right?
    But first of all I would like to try the virtual software of the router how can I do it? nobody answers me.

    Licenses do come across in the upgrade process and remain valid.

    You'll need to check the release notes for Junos 19 to confirm.  But I do think more recent versions of Junos now support the 4 level jump.  But the details are in the release notes per new version you are going to as the target.

    Hi Matias

    First,your require credentials to Juniper portal for downloading Junos.
    You can upgrade to 15 from 12 directly. You can use a pendrive formatted in fat32  or  
    Copy the file to the device using winscp.
