Notes¶
Note
- This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.
- Tested against vSRX JUNOS version 15.1X49-D15.4, vqfx-10000 JUNOS Version 15.1X53-D60.4.
- Recommended connection is netconf. See the Junos OS Platform Options.
- This module also works with localconnections for legacy playbooks.
- For information on using CLI and netconf see the Junos OS Platform Options guide
