Add Branch or Enterprise Hub Sites Without Provisioning a Service
Starting from CSO Release 6.0.0, you can use the Device Management option to add a branch or enterprise hub site without specifying a service.
After you add the site, the status of the site changes to MANAGED. The site can remain in this state for any duration. You can perform the following tasks when the device is in the MANAGED state:
Apply stage-2 configuration or configuration templates
Access the device console
Reboot the device
Install licenses and certificates on the device
Install application signatures
Initiate RMA
You can deploy either a single or dual SRX CPE without adding a service. CSO Release 6.0.0 supports automatic cluster formation on SRX devices.
You cannot add a cloud spoke site with only device management capability. You must select a service for a cloud spoke site.
To configure SD-WAN or security features, you must assign a service to the device. You can edit the site to assign the services. After the service is assigned, the status of the device changes to PROVISIONED.
To add a site with only device management capability:
You can also add a site using the site templates. For more information, see Add Branch Sites by Using a Site Template.

Device Note:
Some fields in this section are displayed only if you enable the Device Redundancy option. |
|
Device Redundancy |
Disabled by default. Enable this option for dual CPEs. The following prerequisites are necessary for enabling device redundancy:
|
Device Series |
Select the device series. Based on the device series that you select, the supported device templates (containing information for configuring devices) are listed. Select a device template for the selected device series. |
Device Model |
Select the device model. |
Device Root Password |
The default root password is fetched from the ENC_ROOT_PASSWORD field in the device template. You can retain the password or change it by entering a password in plain-text format. The password is encrypted and stored on the device. |
Serial Number |
Enter the serial number of the device. Note that the serial numbers are case-sensitive. If you do not enter the serial number, the branch site is created but not activated. See 6 to enter the serial number and activate the branch site later. |
Node 0 Serial Number |
For dual CPEs, enter the serial number of the primary CPE device. The serial number is case sensitive. |
Node 1 Serial Number |
For dual CPEs, enter the serial number of the secondary CPE device. The serial number is case sensitive. |
Zero Touch Provisioning |
Click the toggle button to enable or disable Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). This option is enabled by default. Note:
By default, this button is disabled for vSRX. You can enable this button, if the Junos OS version running on vSRX supports phone-home client. To use ZTP, ensure the following:
If ZTP is enabled, the Boot Image field is displayed and you must select an image that supports the Phone-Home client. During ZTP, the image on the device is upgraded to the image that you select for the Boot Image. |
If you disable ZTP, ensure that the device has connectivity to CSO. If the device is not prestaged or preconfigured, then you must provide the details under the Management Connectivity section so that CSO can generate the configuration as part of the stage-1 configuration. You can skip the Management Connectivity section if the device has connectivity to CSO. If you disable ZTP, you must copy the stage-1 configuration from CSO and commit it on the device to start the onboarding process. Use any of the following options to copy the stage-1 configuration:
|
|
Is Cluster Already Formed? |
Select No if the cluster is not configured. |
Cluster ID |
Enter the device Cluster ID. The value is ignored if the cluster is already formed on the device. Cluster ID should be unique in case more than one cluster is connected through the same Ethernet switch. |
Auto Activate |
Click the toggle button to enable or disable automatic activation of the device. This option is enabled by default. |
Activation Code |
If the automatic activation of the device is disabled, enter the activation code to manually activate the device. The activation code is provided by the administrator who adds the site. |
Node 0 Activation Code |
If the automatic activation of dual CPEs is disabled, enter the activation code to manually activate the primary CPE device. |
Node 1 Activation Code |
If the automatic activation of dual CPEs is disabled, enter the activation code to manually activate the secondary CPE device. |
Management Interface Family |
Select the IP address type (IPv4 or IPv6) for the management interface. This field is displayed only if you have enabled Zero Touch Provisioning. |
Boot Image |
When the Zero Touch Provisioning field is enabled, select the boot image from the drop-down list to upgrade the image on the firewall device to a version that supports Phone-Home client. The boot image is the device image that was previously uploaded to the image management system. The boot image is used to upgrade the device when the CSO starts the ZTP process. If the boot image is not provided, then the device skips the automatic upgrade procedure. The boot image is populated based on the device template that you selected while creating a site. By default, the Use Image on Device option is selected. |
(Device Template) |
Select a device template, which contains information for configuring a device. |
Management Connectivity Note:
This section is displayed only when Zero Touch Provisioning is disabled. If you are adding a chassis cluster, then you must provide the interface details for both the nodes. |
|
Address Family |
Select the IP address type (IPv4 or IPv6). |
Interface Name |
This is a WAN interface that the device uses to connect to CSO. |
