<authentication-response>

Usage

Description

Indicate whether an authentication attempt succeeded. The Junos XML protocol server returns the tag element in response to the <request-login> tag element emitted by a client application that uses the clear-text or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) access protocol.

Contents

<login-name>

Specifies the username that the client application provided to an authentication utility such as RADIUS or TACACS+. This tag element appears only if the username that it contains differs from the username contained in the <message> tag element.
<message>

Names the account under which a connection to the Junos XML protocol server is established, if authentication succeeds. If authentication fails, explains the reason for the failure.
<status>

Indicates whether the authentication attempt succeeded. There are two possible values:

  • fail—The attempt failed. The Junos XML protocol server also emits the <challenge> tag element to request the password again, up to a maximum of three attempts.

  • success—The attempt succeeded. An authenticated connection to the Junos XML protocol server is established.
