This can be set up and administered using a self-serve programmable cloud portal. Here they can be onboarded at cloud scale using private pre-shared keys (PPSK). Many IoT devices do not support 802.1x, so they cannot be onboarded using traditional NAC solutions. Meanwhile, the new IoT Assurance service streamlines and scales the onboarding and securing of IoT devices without Network Access Control (NAC). These are AP 45 – 2.4 GHz/5 GHz/6 GHz quad-radio, 4×4:4SS, vBLE array and AP 34 – 2.4 GHz/5 GHz/6 GHz quad-radio, 2×2:2SS, omni BLE. To take advantage of Wi-Fi 6E, Juniper is announcing two new tri-band access points (APs), managed via the same Mist cloud and AI engine as the rest of the Juniper Mist portfolio. Wi-Fi 6E is a new wireless standard that expands network capacity by making a larger amount of RF spectrum available in the 6 GHz range to add to the existing 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. This aims to maximize Wi-Fi performance and capacity while simplifying IT operations. Wi-Fi 6E LaunchesĪdditionally, Juniper Networks announced two new 6 GHz access points that leverage Mist AI. These include a personalized self-service portal, 24/7 digital assistant, service APIs for integration into third party systems, government support and partner renewals. These can then be curated into actionable insights.Ĭurrent Juniper Care customers are automatically entitled to the value-added Juniper Support Insights option.Īdditional digital support tools are available through Juniper Care. Data can be collected, correlated with Juniper-specific knowledge (known defects, contract status, End of Life/End of Support (EOL/EOS), product knowledge bases, security vulnerabilities). These include ACX Series, EX Series, MX Series, PTX Series, QFX Series and SRX Series. Juniper AI-driven support simplifies connecting Junos-based customer platforms to the Juniper cloud. “Juniper Support Insights represents a major step forward in how we’re transforming services with a focus on personalized, proactive and predictive experience leveraging AI and cloud.” He said the use of data and automation are redefining how customer experience is delivered.
