Other Tools to Configure and Monitor Devices Running Junos OS

Apart from the command-line interface, Junos OS also supports the following applications, scripts, and utilities that enable you to configure and monitor devices running Junos OS:

  • Junos XML Management Protocol Application Programming Interface (API)—Application programmers can use the Junos XML Management Protocol API to monitor and configure Juniper Networks QFX Series products. Juniper Networks provides a Perl module with the API to help you more quickly and easily develop custom Perl scripts for configuring and monitoring the QFX Series.
  • NETCONF Application Programming Interface (API)—Application programmers can also use the NETCONF API to monitor and configure Juniper Networks QFX Series products.
  • Junos OS commit scripts—You can define scripts to enforce custom configuration tasks, enforce consistency, prevent common mistakes, and more. Every time you commit a new candidate configuration, the active commit scripts are called to inspect the new candidate configuration. If a configuration violates your custom rules, the script can instruct the Junos OS to perform various actions, including making changes to the configuration and generating custom, warning, and system log messages.
  • Junos OS Op scripts—You can add your own commands to the operation-mode CLI. You can use these scripts to automate troubleshooting of known network problems and correct them.
  • Junos OS event scripts—You can use event scripts to diagnose and fix issues, monitor the overall status of the system, and examine errors periodically. Event scripts are similar to op scripts except that certain events on the switch will trigger these scripts.
  • Junos Space—The Junos Space application design allows multiple users concurrent access to its user interface. It also includes applications for network infrastructure automation.
