Missing mandatory statement: ‘root-authentication’

After a fresh install of the JUNOS and assign an IP address on a interface and tried to execute “commit” but encounter an error:

Missing mandatory statement: 'root-authentication'

image

Junos OS requires configuration of the root password before it accepts a commit operation.

Assign the root password:

# set system root-authentication plain-text-password

image

The password set need to meet the requirements.

Now commit again.

The journey begins.
