Prerequisites

Before setting up the Juniper Apstra Edge for Apstra Cloud Services (ACS), ensure that you have the following:

  • Your Apstra-managed fabric is fully operational and running Juniper Apstra vesion 4.2.0 or later.

  • Active Juniper Apstra Cloud Services account.

    For information about how to activate a Juniper Apstra Cloud Services account, see the User Activation and Login section of the Juniper Apstra Cloud Services Guide.

  • Active Marvis subscription on Wired/WAN/Wireless is required for the ACS integration with Mist. Marvis subscriptions are NOT necessary for data center switches.

    For information about Marvis subcription options, see Subscriptions for Marvis.

  • Active Juniper Apstra license.

    For information about Juniper Apstra software licenses, see the Juniper Apstra Datasheet.

  • Internet connectivity that provides the Edge container with access to Juniper Apstra Cloud Services.

  • Download the the Juniper Apstra Edge image files (Edge image) onto the host where you plan on running the installation. This host must be able to reach the Juniper Apstra controller.

  • The RECEIVER_PORT (default 9595) and the EDGE_SERVER_PORT (default 8081) do not have existing services using those ports on the host where the apstra-edge container will be installed.

    In the unlikely event that there is a port conflict, you can manually change these port numbers in the docker-compose.yml file of the .tgz Edge image download. Internal Edge services use these ports to stream vital data.
