Juniper Exam JN0-223 Topic 2 Question 11 Discussion

When using the set rest control configuration command on a Junos device, you have several options to control access to the REST API. Two effective methods include:

Limiting the number of simultaneous connections: This ensures that the REST API is not overwhelmed by too many concurrent requests, which could potentially lead to performance issues or denial of service.

Limiting access to certain source IP addresses: This method restricts API access to specific IP addresses, enhancing security by ensuring that only trusted sources can interact with the REST API.

Option A (Limit management access to only SSH) is unrelated to controlling REST API access specifically.

Option B (Limit management access to specific users) might be relevant in a different context, but it is not directly tied to REST API control via the specific command mentioned.

Juniper Networks REST API Documentation: This documentation explains how to configure and control access to the REST API on Junos devices, including connection limits and IP-based access control.
