Step 1: Begin

In this guide, we provide a simple, three-step path, to quickly get the Juniper Networks® SSR100 Series devices (SSR120 and SSR130) and SSR1000 Series devices (SSR1200, SSR1300, SSR1400, and SSR1500) up and running on Juniper Mist™ cloud. You can on-board a single SSR device using your mobile phone, or one or more devices using your computer. Once on-board, we'll walk you through the steps to create a basic configuration. You'll need your Juniper Mist WAN Assurance subscription and your login credentials for the Juniper Mist portal.

Note:

Before you begin, you must set up your organization and sites, and activate your subscriptions in Mist. For more information, see Quick Start: Mist.
