What's Changed

Learn about what changed in this release for ACX Series routers.

Junos OS API and Scripting

  • The <request-system-zeroize> RPC response indicates when the device successfully initiates the requested operation (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX)—When the <request-system-zeroize> RPC successfully initiates the zeroize operation, the device emits the <system-zeroize-status>zeroizing re0</system-zeroize-status> response tag to indicate that the process has started. If the device fails to initiate the zeroize operation, the device does not emit the <system-zeroize-status> response tag.

Network Management and Monitoring

  • Junos XML protocol Perl modules deprecated (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX)—We no longer provide the Junos XML protocol Perl client for download. To use Perl to manage Junos devices, use the NETCONF Perl library instead.

    [See Understanding the NETCONF Perl Client and Sample Scripts.]

  • Changes when deactivating or deleting instances of the ephemeral configuration database (ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series, SRX Series, vMX, and vSRX)—The following changes apply when you deactivate or delete ephemeral database instances in the static configuration database:
    • When you deactivate the entire [edit system configuration-database ephemeral] hierarchy level, the device deletes the files and corresponding configuration data for all user-defined ephemeral instances. In earlier releases, the files and configuration data are preserved; however, the configuration data is not merged with the static configuration database.

    • When you delete an ephemeral instance in the static configuration database, the instance's configuration files are also deleted. In earlier releases, the configuration files are preserved.

    • You can delete the files and corresponding configuration data for the default ephemeral database instance by configuring the delete-ephemeral-default statement in conjunction with the ignore-ephemeral-default statement at the [edit system configuration-database ephemeral] hierarchy level.

    [See Enable and Configure Instances of the Ephemeral Configuration Database.]

Routing Protocols

  • To achieve consistency among resource paths, the resource path /mpls/signalling-protocols/segment-routing/aggregate-sid-counters/aggregate-sid-counter ip-addr='address'/state/countersname='name'/out-pkts/ is changed to /mpls/signaling-protocols/segment-routing/aggregate-sid-counters/aggregate-sid-counterip-addr='address'/state/countersname='name'/. The leaf out-pkts is removed from the end of the path, and signalling is changed to signaling (with one "l").
