Register product serial numbers on the Juniper Networks website and update the
installation base data if there is any addition or change to the installation base or if the
installation base is moved. Juniper Networks will not be held accountable for not meeting
the hardware replacement service-level agreement for products that do not have
registered serial numbers or accurate installation base data.

Part 1: Mount the Device
You can mount the MX150 device on two posts of a 19-in. rack by using the mounting
brackets provided with the device. The device weighs approximately 9.4 lb (4.3 kg). Two
persons are required for mounting the device.
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
NOTE: If you are mounting multiple units in the rack, mount the heaviest unit at the
bottom and mount the others from bottom to top in order of decreasing weight.
2. Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
3. Align the mounting brackets along the front or rear of the side panels of the chassis—
depending on whether you will front-mount or rear-mount the device—and attach the
mounting brackets to the chassis by using the mounting screws. Tighten the screws.
4. Have one person grasp both sides of the device, lift the device, and position it in the
rack, aligning the mounting bracket holes with the threaded holes in the rack rail.
Align the bottom hole in each mounting bracket with a hole in each rack rail, making
sure that the chassis is level.
5. Have the second person use the mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers if
your rack requires them) to screw the mounting bracket to the rack.
Part 2: Connect Power to the Device
1. Attach the grounding cable to earth ground and then to the chassis grounding points.
NOTE: We recommend grounding for AC-powered systems. An AC-powered device gets
additional grounding when you connect the power supply in the device to a grounded AC
power outlet by using the power cord. The MX150 device uses a fixed, internal AC power
supply.
2. Set the power switch to the off (O) position.
3. Insert the power cord plug into the power source outlet.
4. Insert the power cord coupler firmly into the inlet.
5. Set the power switch to the on (|) position.
6. Verify that the power LED is lit green and on steadily.
Part 3: Perform Initial Configuration
You must perform the initial configuration of the device to configure the static IP address
on Junos so that the router is accessible from the remote server using telnet or ssh
services.
To configure the device:
1. Log in as the root user. There is no password.
login: root
2. Start the CLI:
root% cli
3. Enter configuration mode:
root> configure
4. Remove Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) which enables the device to automatically
upgrade the Junos OS software and auto-install configuration files from the network.
root# delete chassis auto-image-upgrade
5. Specify a password for the root administration user account:

Safety Warnings Summary
This is a summary of safety warnings. For a complete list of warnings, including
translations, see the MX150 documentation at http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/ .
WARNING: Failure to observe these safety warnings can result in personal injury
or death.
zPermit only trained and qualified personnel to install or replace device components.
zPerform only the procedures described in this quick start and the MX150
documentation. Other services must be performed only by authorized service
personnel.
zBefore installing the device, read the planning instructions in the MX150
documentation to make sure that the site meets power, environmental, and clearance
requirements for the device.
zBefore connecting the device to a power source, read the installation instructions in the
MX150 documentation.
zThe MX150 device weighs approximately 9.4 lb (4.3 kg). Manually installing the device
in a rack at a height above 60 in. (152.4 cm) requires two persons; one to lift the device
and the second to install the mounting screws. To prevent injury while lifting, keep your
back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.
zIf the rack has stabilizing devices, install them in the rack before mounting or servicing
the device in the rack.
zBefore installing or after removing an electrical component, always place it
component-side up on an antistatic mat placed on a flat, stable surface or in an
antistatic bag.
zDo not work on the device or connect or disconnect cables during electrical storms.
zBefore working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry,
including rings, necklaces, and watches. Metal objects heat up when connected to
power and ground and can cause serious burns or become welded to the terminals.
Power Cable Warning (Japanese)
The attached power cable is only for this product. Do not use this cable for another
