Hello Suraj,
thanks for the update!
I was afraid this wouldn't be possible indeed but it seemed a bit silly to me.
I would at least expect Junos Space to be able to do this.
Too bad, because we often have to (temporarily) deploy SRX firewalls on locations that may not always be under our physical administration, these are perfect feasible candidates to encrypt the config as a security-measure.
I was aware of the "unigue" parameter, this is actually hat I was planning to use, so that no one could "simply" copy the config in another SRX of their own and still be able to read the config.
It would be great if this could be a feature on Space, or that Juniper would provide us with a separate decrypt tool .
We would most certainly be using this option then, but for now since we can't use the backup files this way, it's not of much use to us.
Thanks again though,
Radboud Veld
