Step 1: Begin

This guide walks you through the simple steps to get a new cloud-ready Juniper Networks® SSR130 router up and running in the Juniper Mist™ cloud portal. You can onboard a single device using your mobile phone, or one or more devices using your computer. Once onboarded, we'll walk you through the steps to create a basic configuration.

Meet the SSR130

The Juniper Networks SSR130 network appliance is part of the Juniper® Session Smart™ Routing portfolio. The SSR130 features six 1 GbE ports and two 1 GbE RJ-45/SFP combo ports.

The SSR130 runs the FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliant Juniper® Session Smart™ Routing (SSR) software, which provides secure and resilient WAN connectivity.

The SSR130 is available in models with or without LTE support.

Onboarding the SSR130

The SSR130 comes ready to install and manage using the Juniper Mist™ Cloud portal. You can onboard one or more routers using your computer, or a single router using your mobile phone.
