Hello,
We are looking for a solution to manage local networks.
Our goal is to recommend a tool to local net admins. Most of our switches are Juniper EX, as cisco and HP switches are phased out.
Our current tool, Netmagis, is slow to evolve on the network configuration side (we have not enough time to develop it).
The network admin in one of our Faculty is currently testing Nav. He seems satisfied so far, except for one thing : the impossibility to set a VLAN on a port on Juniper through the "Port Admin" feature.
Do you have any plan to allow VLAN modification on Juniper ?
Thanks for your answer.

Hi Jean,
did we not meet at one of CESNET's Campus Best Practices workshops a few years back? :-)

Yes we do, as we are increasingly deploying Juniper equipment in our own endeavours.
However, since Juniper does not allow switch configuration through SNMP write operations, NETCONF support is needed. We're working on this.
The next NAV feature release will focus mostly on supporting Python 3, but also includes the model changes needed to support configuration of other management protocols than SNMP v1 and v2c.
The basic issue of initial NETCONF support is registered at https://github.com/Uninett/nav/issues/1176 (although, I see it could use some updates).
