Changing Configuration Information

This chapter explains how to use the JUNOS Extensible Markup Language (XML) and JUNOScript application programming interfaces (APIs) to change routing platform configuration. The JUNOScript <load-configuration> tag element and its attributes correspond to configuration mode commands in the JUNOS command-line interface (CLI), which are described in the JUNOS CLI User Guide. The JUNOS XML tag elements described here correspond to configuration statements, which are described in the JUNOS software configuration guides.

This chapter discusses the following topics:

• Overview of Configuration Changes
• Specifying the Source and Format of New Configuration Data
• Replacing the Entire Configuration
• Creating, Modifying, or Deleting Configuration Elements
• Reordering Elements in Configuration Objects
• Renaming a Configuration Object
• Changing a Configuration Element’s Activation State
• Changing a Configuration Element’s Activation State Simultaneously with Other Changes
