To configure a brand new Juniper switch for remote access via vme (Management port) use following steps:
# First connect to switch via console using 9600 baud rate
# Then login into switch with username root.  It wont prompt for any password.  By default password for root user is empty (no-password).

# Get access to switch command line interface (cli) with below command:
#:<pre>
#:: cli
#:</pre>
# Switch from default operational mode to configuration mode using:
#:<pre>
#:: configure
#:</pre>
# Set root password on switch using:
#:<pre> 
#:: set system root-authentication plain-text-password
#:</pre>
#:: After this type the desired root password twice
# Create admin (non-root) user with superuser class using:
#:<pre>
#:: set system login user admin class super-user authentication plain-text-password
#:</pre>
#:: After this type the desired admin password twice
# Set hostname and DNS
#:<pre>
#:: set system host-name <hostname1>
#:: set system name-server <dns1>
#:: set system name-server <dns2>
#:</pre>
# Enable SSH and Web based access
#:<pre>
#:: set system services ssh root-login allow
#:: set system services web-management http
#:</pre>
# Assign management IP on vme (Management port)
#:<pre>
#:: delete interfaces vme unit 0 family inet dhcp
#:: set interfaces vme unit 0 family inet address <ipv4-ip/subnet>
#:</pre>
# Disable auto image upgrade
#:<pre>
#:: delete chassis auto-image-upgrade
#:</pre>
# Save changes:
#:<pre>
#:: commit
#:</pre>
# After commit if the management Ethernet port of switch is connected correctly to the given VLAN / subnet, we should be able to ping the management IP appropriately.  
#:'''Note that since we have not given any gateway / routing, the connection will work only from same subnet / VLAN.'''
# If ping is working we can connect over SSH with username root or admin as per requirement
