cjunos does not have a default route to the management network

The cjunos does not have a default route in the mgmt vrf, so when external systems try reaching it, the return traffic does not work.
The ad-hoc fix is:
admin@re0> configure
Entering configuration mode
[edit]
admin@re0# set routing-instances mgmt_junos routing-options static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 172.20.20.1
It needs to be added to the default template.
@kmo7 is it something you feel like tackling?
Hi Roman,
Sure. It would be great if you could fix it, as I am tied up with another project currently. Thanks for debugging this on a Sunday😊
