You are deploying a Juniper Networks EX Series Switch to connect 24 end devices to...

Each of the 24 end-device-facing interfaces in this scenario needs to carry traffic for exactly one VLAN, and the end devices themselves are ordinary hosts that neither expect nor generate 802.1Q-tagged frames. This is precisely the definition of an access port in Junos: family ethernet-switching interface-mode is set to access, and a single vlan members statement assigns the port to VLAN 70. Access mode ensures frames egressing toward the host are untagged and any frames received are implicitly treated as belonging to the configured VLAN, which is both simpler to manage and more efficient than trunking, since access ports do not carry the 802.1Q tag overhead nor process VLAN pruning logic relevant only to multi-VLAN links. Trunk mode, by contrast, is reserved for switch-to-switch or switch-to-router links that must simultaneously carry frames for multiple VLANs, such as the uplink toward the distribution switch that transports VLANs 30, 50, and 70 together — configuring the 24 host-facing ports as trunks (with or without a native VLAN) would be functionally incorrect and operationally wasteful, since end devices have no need to interpret VLAN tags. There is also no such behavior in Junos where VLAN-ID numeric value dictates default port behavior, making the 'no configuration needed' option a distractor with no basis in EX Series switching architecture.
