Upgrade software through ssh: put a copy of Junos software on a ftp location your device can access upon connecting (do not put where you have to browse to after connection). This needs to be done right after you are logged on to the device, and not in cli.
Login to ftp: ftp ip
Change directory to /var/tmp: lcd /var/tmp
Type bin and hit enter
Command to download the file to device: get junos-srxsme-12.1X46-D40.2-domestic.tgz
Type bye
to exit ftp mode when file is downloaded successfully and go to cli.
Invoke the following command to install: request system software add no-copy /var/tmp/junos-srxsme-12.1X46-D40.2-domestic.tgz
Install may take a hot minute so be patient. Once this is complete reboot your device: request system reboot
