Prerequisites for Onboarding a Router

Before you onboard a router, ensure that:

The router can reach the gateway.

Note:
If a firewall exists between Juniper Mist Routing Assurance and the router, configure the firewall to allow outbound access on TCP ports 2200 and 443, from the management port of the router.
The router can connect to the Internet by pinging IP address 8.8.8.8.
You take a back up of the existing Junos OS configuration on the router by running the following command from the router's CLI:
```
user@host> request system configuration rescue save
```
Backup configuration is saved in the config directory. You can view the backed up configuration file by starting the Junos OS shell and running the following commands:
```
user@host> start shell
user@host:~$ cd /config
user@host:/config$ ls -l /config
total 43
...
-rw-r----- 1 root root 7759 Apr  4 20:58 rescue.conf.gz
user@host:/config$
```
Note: We recommend that you back up the existing Junos OS configuration on a router before onboarding it.

Table 1 lists the ports that should be enabled to allow the router to connect with the cloud.
