On the first connect ssh will ask to add the +new host to its known_hosts file. This will not happen automatically so the +script will fail to login until the ssh key of your juniper box is in the +known_hosts file. + Some JunOS devices have a maximum of 5 VTYs available, so be careful not to hit a limit with the 'forks' variable. |
