junos-multi-command 1.0

Run commands against multiple Juniper Junos OS devices

junos-multi-command
===================
junos-multi-command enables you to run a console command simultaneously on many network devices
running the Juniper Junos operating system. The ability to group network devices in the config.yaml file
gives the operator the ability to pick and choose the type of device or logical grouping for the
selected command.

What is really nifty is that it is involked at the command prompt giving the operator the ability to execute
commands on many routers in seconds from a terminal window.

Functions
