Juniper ATP Cloud Configuration Type Overview
Juniper ATP Cloud or ATP Appliance with Policy Enforcer can be used in four different configuration types, which will be explained here.
If you are using Juniper ATP Cloud without Policy Enforcer, you must dis-enroll the devices from Juniper ATP Cloud before you re-enroll to Policy Enforcer.
The license you purchase determines if you can use the available configurations and feature sets for your selected ATP Cloud Configuration Type.
Configuration Type is set here in the UI: Administration > Policy Enforcer > Settings.
The following Juniper ATP Cloud Configuration Types and corresponding workflows are available. Workflows are the items you configure for each selection.
