Problem

Brand new switch, can't configure because the CLI console keeps saying:

error: remote side unexpectedly closed connection
...and kicking you out.

Observed with many JunOS OS revs, including 11.4R7.5.

Solution

What is happening is that the initial config is continually trying to rollback to a non-existant config.

Reboot the switch, then from the root OS interface (not the CLI) run

mgd -i
(it will take a while)

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
