A. The Junos REST API client is on-box:The Junos REST API ison-box, meaning it is hosted directly on the Junos OS device. This allows you to interact with the device through RESTful API calls without needing an external client to act as an intermediary. With the on-box REST API, users can manage and automate configuration and operational tasks directly from the Junos device itself using HTTP/HTTPS protocols. This simplifies automation and remote management since the API server is embedded within the device.

Key Automation Capabilities of On-box REST API:

Supports configuration, monitoring, and operational commands.

Allows for direct device interaction via tools like curl, or through custom-built automation scripts.

An XML schema document (XSD) is a key component in defining the structure and constraints of XML data used in various applications, including Junos:

Authoritative Source (C): An XML schema document serves as the authoritative definition of the structure, content, and semantics of XML documents. It ensures that the XML data adheres to specific rules and formats, which is essential for both operational and configuration XML.

XSD Format (D): XML schema documents are typically written in the XSD (XML Schema Definition) format, which provides a formal description of the XML document's structure.

Option A is incorrectbecause XML schemas are not formatted as XLT files (which are related to XSLT transformations), andOption B is incorrectbecause XML schemas can indeed be examined in the Junos CLI using appropriate commands.

W3C XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) Documentation: Provides comprehensive information on the XSD format.

Juniper Networks Documentation: Discusses the role of XML schemas in managing Junos configurations.

In Junos PyEZ, theConfigobject provides various methods for interacting with device configurations. Two of the key methods are:

lock():This method locks the candidate configuration database to prevent other users or processes from making changes while you are modifying the configuration.

config():This method is used to create aConfigobject that represents the configuration database, allowing you to load, modify, and commit configuration changes.

Option C (lock)andOption D (config)are correct because they are valid methods provided by the PyEZConfigobject.

Option A (commie)andOption B (device)are incorrect as they are not methods of theConfigobject.
