Deploy Apstra ConnectorOps and Verify Connectivity

Note: In this example, we install ConnectorOps in a separate VM with access to both Apstra and the SRXs. When installing ConnectorOps, ensure that the VM/host/server where ConnectorOps is installed can ping the Apstra VM and the SRXs.
Note: ConnectorOps does not automatically create Security Policies on SRX devices. For example Security Policies used in this exact topology, see Configure Security Policies.
  1. Create a directory for the ConnectorOps image.
  2. Download the latest Apstra ConnectorOps image onto the VM/host/server.
    Use the following download link under Application Tools: https://support.juniper.net/support/downloads/?p=apstra.
  3. Install Docker and Docker Compose.
  4. Load the Docker image.
  5. Create the docker-compose.yml file.
    The following is an example docker-compose.yml file. Note the line "<host-port>:8080". This is the host-side port. When you run docker compose, the host port is exposed and any REST API calls listen to this port, which is redirected to the ConnectorOps service port (8080).
  6. Start ConnectorOps.
    The service begins generating configs for your Blueprint.
After starting ConnectorOps, proceed to Create and Import a Global Property Set.
