This page is about basic configuration of jSpace installed in EVE-PRO or VMware Fusion. I will go further to include configuration in EVE-PRO.
Note: jSpace need to be connected to a network which has access to Internet.
MacBook Pro is external, connected to internet and used for configuration inside terminal and Firefox. Appears in picture just just for understanding the configuration and use of jSpace.
1 – Click jSpace. It will be opened in EVE-PRO.
2 – You will be asked to enter user and password respectively also for UNIX password.
Username: admin
Password abc123
3 – After this you will be asked to change the password. Choose your new password according to the local instructions. Otherwise you may fail to set a proper password.
[sudo] password for admin: Juniper123Juniper123 (- the_configured_password)
4 – Press enter and continue. Configuration Eth0 will start.
Choose the type of node to be installed [S/F] S
Configuring Eth0:
1) Configure UPv4
2) Configure Both IPv4 and IPv6
R) Redraw Menu
5 – Click 1 and continue
Choice [1-2,R]: 1
Please enter new IPv4 address for interface eth0

Please type the IPv4 nameservicer address in dotted decimal notation:
8.8.8.8
Configure a separate interface for device management? [y/N] n
Will this Junos Space system be added to an existing cluster? [y/N] n
6 – Web GUI configuration
Configuring IP address for web GUI:
1) Configure IPv4
R) Redraw Menu
Chose [1,R]: 1
Please enter IPv4 Address for web GUI:

Note: For Please type the new NTP server: 192.168.100.1 which is default IPv4 gateway you can use alsosomething external like 82.197.221.30
Here is an image but all to do list is up
7 – Now you can connect to the box via SSH at its ip 192.168.100.199
[root@space-000c29cb6706 ~]# ip -4 addr
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> meu 655536 disc no queue state UNKNOWN

8 – Now it is time to login to the web UI.
https://192.168.100.200
Impossible use Safari from MacBook Pro. Install and use Firefox.
Note: If connect to correct internet and configure with current ip, jSpace can be open also with Firefox from MacBook Pro.
Username: super
Password juniper123
You have to configure a new password. I insert mine new password jSpace321jSpac.
9 – Ready to use jSpace to deploy the Network Director.
Download and use Network-Director.4.0R1.36.img in Download folder or … It is difficult to use an .img situated in Dropbox. Make a copy of the Network-Director.4.0R1.36.img and put it in Downloads folder in MacBook Pro.
Inside MacBook Pro open Firefox than jSpace using the web IP like https://192.168.100.200
Web user is super and the configured password jSpace321jSpace
Go to Adminitration -> Applications -> + button meaning Add Application
Select Upload via HTTP and upload the Network-Director.4.0R1.36.img
Please click on Job ID to new details > OK
Once it appears, click install then OK
Application Management Job Information: Please logout and log in again after the installation of new application completed successfully. Click on Job ID to new details > OK
It will take a while for the application to be installed…

Overview
You can deploy the Junos Space Virtual Appliance *.ova file on a VMware ESXi server version 5.5, 6.0, or 6.5. Basic I have ESXi 6.7 but into installation step maybe I can modify to 6.0.
After the Junos Space Virtual Appliance is deployed, you can use the VMware vSphere client or Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) to connect to the VMware ESXi server and configure the Junos Space Virtual Appliance.
The minimum hardware requirements for deploying a Junos Space Virtual Appliance are as follows:
one core of the processor
64-bit quad processor with a clock speed of at least 2.66 GHz

And here we are! We have installed both space platform and security director. Last but not least I need to recap usernames we have configured so far to avoid any confusion.
1) admin user: We set this for the Linux shell and default password during the installation is abc123 2) maintenance user: we also set password for this but it is used for special operations. No default password for this. It must be set. 3)super user: this user is used for WEB UI and initial default password is juniper123
