The correct answers are A, C, and E. During Security Director device discovery, Junos Space first finds and connects to the managed device, then synchronizes the device inventory and configuration into the Junos Space database. Juniper’s Security Director documentation states that discovery uses a discovery profile containing target information, authentication credentials, probes, and SSH fingerprints. During discovery, Junos Space connects to the physical device and retrieves the running configuration and status information. It also states that Junos Space uses SSH, with optional ping and SNMP, to discover network devices.

Option B is wrong because device discovery is not a reboot operation. Rebooting would be disruptive and is not part of onboarding a managed SRX into Security Director. Option D is wrong because discovery does not automatically inject a local superuser into the SRX configuration. Security Director authenticates using credentials supplied in the discovery profile; it does not create privileged local accounts as a discovery action. The tested workflow is management-plane discovery: connect, authenticate, retrieve inventory/status, and import configuration state.
