I have a jumphost/bastion set up for a lot of Cisco routers. It works great, now I’m trying to get Juniper devices working. When I specify transport=cli, so it uses network\_cli, the bastion works fine. When I use netconf connections the bastion is not used. I have upgraded to 2.5.4 to try and fix this, and found this page which seems to indicate this should work, [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.5/network/user\_guide/platform\_junos.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.5/network/user_guide/platform_junos.html).

Has anyone got this working?

Thank you,

For cisco routers also I am getting issues.
