</request-login>
</rpc>

Description

Request authentication by the JUNOScript server when using the clear-text or SSL access protocol.

Emitting both the <username> and <challenge-response> tag elements is appropriate if the client application automates access to routing platform information and does not interact with users, or obtains the password from a user before beginning the authentication process.

Emitting only the <username> tag element is appropriate if the application does not obtain the password until the authentication process has already begun. In this case, the JUNOScript server returns the <challenge> tag element to request the password associated with the account.

<challenge-response>—Specifies the password for the account named in the <username> tag element. Omit this tag element to have the JUNOScript server emit the <challenge> tag element to request the password.

<username>—Names the account under which to authenticate with the JUNOScript server. The account must already be configured on the routing platform where the JUNOScript server is running.

Usage Guidelines
