# Juniper vSRX Vagrant box
A procedure for creating a Juniper vSRX Vagrant box for the [libvirt](https://libvirt.org) provider.
## Prerequisites
* [Git](https://git-scm.com)
* [Python](https://www.python.org)
* [Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/index.html)
* [libvirt](https://libvirt.org) with client tools
* [QEMU](https://www.qemu.org)
* [Expect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expect)
* [Telnet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telnet)
* [Vagrant](https://www.vagrantup.com) >= 2.2.10, != 2.2.16
* [vagrant-libvirt](https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt)
## Steps
0\. Verify the prerequisite tools are installed.
$ which git python ansible libvirtd virsh qemu-system-x86_64 expect telnet vagrant
$ vagrant plugin list
vagrant-libvirt (0.6.3, global)
1\. Download the vSRX (KVM) file from the [Juniper](https://support.juniper.net/support/downloads/) website. Save it to your `Downloads` directory.
2\. Copy (and rename) the disk image file to the `/var/lib/libvirt/images` directory.
$ sudo cp $HOME/Downloads/junos-vsrx3-x86-64-21.2R1.10.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/juniper-vsrx.qcow2
3\. Modify the file ownership and permissions. Note the owner may differ between Linux distributions.
> Ubuntu 18.04
$ sudo chown libvirt-qemu:kvm /var/lib/libvirt/images/juniper-vsrx.qcow2
$ sudo chmod u+x /var/lib/libvirt/images/juniper-vsrx.qcow2
> Arch Linux
$ sudo chown nobody:kvm /var/lib/libvirt/images/juniper-vsrx.qcow2
$ sudo chmod u+x /var/lib/libvirt/images/juniper-vsrx.qcow2
4\. Create the `boxes` directory.
$ mkdir -p $HOME/boxes
5\. Start the `vagrant-libvirt` network (if not already started).
$ virsh -c qemu:///system net-list
$ virsh -c qemu:///system net-start vagrant-libvirt
6\. Clone this GitHub repo and _cd_ into the directory.
$ git clone https://github.com/mweisel/juniper-vsrx-vagrant-libvirt
$ cd juniper-vsrx-vagrant-libvirt
7\. Run the Ansible playbook.
$ ansible-playbook main.yml
8\. Copy (and rename) the Vagrant box artifact to the `boxes` directory.
$ cp juniper-vsrx.box $HOME/boxes/juniper-vsrx-21.2R1.box
9\. Copy the box metadata file to the `boxes` directory.
$ cp ./files/juniper-vsrx.json $HOME/boxes/
10\. Change the current working directory to `boxes`.
$ cd $HOME/boxes
11\. Substitute the `HOME` placeholder string in the box metadata file.
$ awk '/url/{gsub(/^ */,"");print}' juniper-vsrx.json
"url": "file://HOME/boxes/juniper-vsrx-VER.box"
$ sed -i "s|HOME|${HOME}|" juniper-vsrx.json
$ awk '/url/{gsub(/^ */,"");print}' juniper-vsrx.json
"url": "file:///home/marc/boxes/juniper-vsrx-VER.box"
12\. Also, substitute the `VER` placeholder string with your Juniper vSRX version.
$ awk '/VER/{gsub(/^ */,"");print}' juniper-vsrx.json
"version": "VER",
"url": "file:///home/marc/boxes/juniper-vsrx-VER.box"
$ sed -i 's/VER/21.2R1/g' juniper-vsrx.json
$ awk '/\<version\>|url/{gsub(/^ */,"");print}' juniper-vsrx.json
"version": "21.2R1",
"url": "file:///home/marc/boxes/juniper-vsrx-21.2R1.box"
13\. Add the Vagrant box to the local inventory.
$ vagrant box add --box-version 21.2R1 juniper-vsrx.json
