Symptoms

On EX4400 platforms, some "factory default" header like below will show up in output of "show configuration".

Solution

These messages are informational which are inherited from the platform specific factory-default config file which gets merged with common factory default config.

For example:

root@jtac-EX4400-48F-r009:RE:0% more /etc/config/ex4400-48p-factory.conf
#
# $Id:$
#
# Copyright (c) 2020, Juniper Networks, Inc.
# All rights reserved.
#
# Filename: ex4400-48p-factory.conf
# Platform: EX4400-48P
# Description: Factory default config for Junos.
#
#

system {
    auto-snapshot;
<Output truncated>
 

The header should have been omitted in the output via double hash tag “##” but they are now with single hash tag “#”.
