Overview of a JUNOScript Session

Communication between the JUNOScript server and a client application is session-based. The two parties explicitly establish a connection before exchanging data and close the connection when they are finished. The following list outlines the basic structure of a JUNOScript session. For more specific information, see Client Application’s Role in a JUNOScript Session.

1. The client application establishes a connection to the JUNOScript server and opens the JUNOScript session.
2. The JUNOScript server and client application exchange initialization information, used to determine if they are using compatible versions of the JUNOS software and the JUNOScript API.
3. The client application sends one or more requests to the JUNOScript server and parses its responses.
4. The client application closes the JUNOScript session and the connection to the JUNOScript server.
