  title: Juniper Networks Juniper Contrail Networking REST API
  description: >-
    RESTful API for Juniper Contrail Networking (now Tungsten Fabric), a
    cloud-native SDN controller that provides virtual network orchestration
    for OpenStack, Kubernetes, and VMware environments. The API manages
    virtual networks, network policies, security groups, service chains,
    and BGP routing. Contrail uses a configuration API server that exposes
    a RESTful interface for all network objects. Objects follow a hierarchical
    model with domains, projects, and network resources. Authentication
    integrates with Keystone (OpenStack) or local authentication.
