Overview of the Request Procedure

To request information from the JUNOScript server, a client application performs the procedures described in the indicated sections:

Establishes a connection to the JUNOScript server on the routing platform, as described in Connecting to the JUNOScript Server.
Opens a JUNOScript session, as described in Starting the JUNOScript Session.
If making configuration requests, optionally locks the candidate configuration or creates a private copy, as described in Locking the Candidate Configuration and Creating a Private Copy of the Configuration.
Makes any number of requests one at a time, freely intermingling operational and configuration requests. See Requesting Operational Information and Requesting Configuration Information.
The application can also intermix requests with configuration changes, which are described in Changing Configuration Information.
Accepts the tag stream emitted by the JUNOScript server in response to each request and extracts its content, as described in Parsing the JUNOScript Server Response.
Unlocks the candidate configuration if it is locked, as described in Unlocking the Candidate Configuration. Other users and applications cannot change the configuration while it remains locked.
Ends the JUNOScript session and closes the connection to the routing platform, as described in Ending a JUNOScript Session and Closing the Connection.
