I have configured JunOS in GNS3. You can refer below link to simulate a JunOS device with GNS3.
http://muralirajanm.blogspot.in/2011/01/gns3.html
We will discuss these topics in this post:
1. First time login to JunOS device
2. User Account
3. Interface IP address configuration
4. Static Routing in JunOS
5. Floating Static route – Qualified-next-hop
We will use this topology.
When you log in to a JunOS device, you are placed into one of two shells:
– C shell %
– CLI in operational mode user@router> (operational mode)
user@router# (configuration mode)
The root account or user is a predefined user name in JunOS. The root user is by default the administrator or super user, who has absolute permission to both configure and install software on a device. JunOS requires configuration of the root password before it accepts a commit. On a new device the root password must always be a part of the configuration submitted with your initial commit.
There is no default password for root account in initial configuration. You just need to type username as root and hit enter. When you login with root account, you will be placed in ‘C shell’. You have to type ‘cli’ to go to operational mode.
login: root

Type ‘configure’ in cli mode. It will change the prompt and place you in edit configuration mode.

Now we will configure IP address on interface as per our topology.
– Each and every interface within the JunOS software requires at least one logical interface, called a unit. This is where all addressing and protocol information is configured.
– The inet protocol family supports IP version 4 (IPv4) packets.
amolak@R1# set interfaces em0 unit 0 family inet address 1.1.12.1/24
[edit]
amolak@R1# set interfaces em1 unit 0 family inet address 1.1.21.1/24

Lets verify the IP address on interfaces with show command. I have filtered interfaces only having IPv4 (family inet) address configured with “| match inet’.
amolak@R1> show interfaces terse | match inet
em0.0 up up inet 1.1.12.1/24
em1.0 up up inet 1.1.21.1/24
lo0.0 up up inet 1.1.0.1 –> 0/0
amolak@R2# run show interfaces terse | match inet
em0.0 up up inet 1.1.12.2/24
em1.0 up up inet 1.1.21.2/24
lo0.0 up up inet 1.1.0.2 –> 0/0
Verify the PING reachability.

By default, the static route has a default preference value of five. In general, the default properties assigned to a static route apply to all the next-hop addresses configured for the static route. If, however, you want to configure two possible next-hop addresses for a particular route and have them treated differently, you can define one as a qualified next hop.
Qualified next hops allow you to associate one or more properties with a particular next-hop address. You can set an overall preference for a particular static route and then specify a different preference for the qualified next hop.
First, let’s try without qualified next-hop.
amolak@R1# set routing-options static route 1.1.0.2/32 next-hop 1.1.21.2 preference 10

1.1.0.2/32 *[Static/10] 00:00:03
to 1.1.12.2 via em0.0
> to 1.1.21.2 via em1.0
It has changed the preference value to 10 for both the next-hop addresses.
Rollback this configuration. We will discuss rollback feature in some other post. In short, JunOS keeps last fifty configurations (0-49). 0 is the current configuration state number.
amolak@R1# rollback 1

– preference 10;
+ next-hop 1.1.12.2;
[edit]
‘show | compare’ compares the current configuration and last committed configuration and shows the differences.
Now lets add a second static route with qualified next-hop.
