Manage local user accounts on Juniper JUNOS devices

Version added: 1.0.0

Synopsis

  • This module manages locally configured user accounts on remote network devices running the JUNOS operating system. It provides a set of arguments for creating, removing and updating locally defined accounts

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

aggregate
list / elements=dictionary
The aggregate argument defines a list of users to be configured on the remote device. The list of users will be compared against the current users and only changes will be added or removed from the device configuration. This argument is mutually exclusive with the name argument.
