Enroll an SRX Series Firewall Using the CLI

Starting in Junos OS Release 19.3R1, you can use the request services advanced-anti-malware enroll command on the SRX Series Firewall to enroll a device to the Juniper ATP Cloud Web Portal. With this command, you do not have to perform any enrollment tasks on the Web Portal. All enrollment is done from the CLI on the SRX.

Enrollment establishes a secure connection between the Juniper ATP Cloud cloud server and the SRX Series Firewall. It also performs basic configuration tasks such as:

  • Downloads and installs certificate authorities (CAs) onto your SRX Series Firewall.

    Note:

    You can enroll SRX1600 and SRX2300 Firewalls with Trusted Platform Module (TPM)-based certificates for TLS-based authentication and a secure connection with the Juniper ATP Cloud. For more information about TPM, see Encryption with Trusted Platform Module. Since the TPM-based certificates are used for connections between the SRX Series Firewall and Juniper ATP Cloud, you must allow traffic to the junipersecurity.net domain on ports 8444 and 7444.

  • Creates local certificates and enrolls these certificates with the cloud server.

  • Establishes a secure connection to the cloud server.

Note:

Juniper ATP Cloud requires that both your Routing Engine (control plane) and Packet Forwarding Engine (data plane) can connect to the Internet. You do not need to open any ports on the SRX Series Firewall to communicate with the cloud server. However, if you have a device in the middle, such as a firewall, then that device must have ports 80, 8080, and 443 open.

Also note, the SRX Series Firewall must be configured with DNS servers in order to resolve the cloud URL.

Using the device enrollment command request services advanced-anti-malware enroll on the SRX Series Firewall, you can enroll the device to an existing realm or create a realm and then enroll to it.

Here is a sample that creates a realm and then enrolls to that realm.

Note:

You must log in as root (super user) to perform the following operations.

      Device enrolled successfully!

You can use the show services advanced-anti-malware status CLI command on your SRX Series Firewall to verify that a connection has been made to the cloud server from the SRX Series Firewall.

Once enrolled, the SRX Series Firewall communicates to the cloud through multiple, persistent connections established over a secure channel (TLS 1.2) and the SRX Series Firewall is authenticated using SSL client certificates.
