Assign Sites

Complete the configuration process by assigning templates, hub profiles, and devices to sites.

In a Juniper Mist™ network, you must onboard your WAN Edge devices by assigning them to sites. Assign your hub profiles, WAN Edge templates, and standalone devices to sites. This final step brings the topology together.

Before You Begin

Assign Sites

  1. Navigate to your WAN Edge template, hub profile, or standalone WAN Edge device.
  2. Make the site assignment:

    • In a WAN Edge template—Click Assign to Sites. Then click the plus button (+), select the site(s) to add, then click Apply. Save the template.

      Note:

      A site can't have two WAN Edge templates. If a site already has a template assigned to it, the newly assigned template will replace the existing one.

    • In a hub profile—Under Applies to Devices, click the drop-down list, and then click a site. Save the profile.

    • For a standalone device—From the left menu, select Organization > Admin > Inventory. Select the check box next to the device, click the More menu, and then click Assign to Site. In the pop-up window, select a site, and then click Assign to Site at the bottom of the window.

Device Configuration and Automatic Rollback

After a device is adopted or claimed, it automatically receives configurations from the Juniper Mist portal.

If the configuration is valid, the device waits five minutes and then checks its connection to the Mist cloud. If the connection is good, the configuration proceeds.

If there are issues:

  • Invalid Configuration—If a new configuration is invalid, the device rejects it and returns to the last valid configuration.

  • Poor Connectivity—If the device loses connectivity after the five-minute wait period, it rolls back to the previous configuration. This auto-rollback feature ensures that the device quickly returns to a working configuration.
