Which transport protocol is used for remote JET API calls?
Juniper Extension Toolkit (JET) uses the gRPC framework for remote procedure calls between an off-box application and the JET service daemon (JSD) running on the Junos device. gRPC runs over HTTP/2 and relies on protocol buffer (.proto) definitions to provide a language-agnostic request/response interface, which is the mechanism JET relies on for remote API interactions.
