In this Demo
  • The latest version of Juniper Apstra supports the Policy Assurance feature. In this quick walkthrough, we will see how to create a policy and enforce it.
  • Fabric Assurance is a feature that builds and maintains complex security policies that are implemented as Access Control Lists (ACLs) on the Juniper Apstra managed devices.
  • Endpoints are the most basic elements of any policy as the endpoints are the ones where the policy is applied.
  • Endpoints represent servers or other workloads, subnets or entire VRFs. These endpoints can be either internal or external to the managed fabric. Multiple endpoints can be grouped together to form End Point Groups. Let us create a policy in the next step.
  • All the policies are conviniently visible from the policies tab. We can search, manage, change or create new policies using a simple intutitve Juniper Apstra UI.
