Page 10: Create A Template
Create a Template Excellent! Now you have the SSR1200 waiting to be claimed, a network for your LAN, and an Internet application for your WAN. Next, you need to create a WAN Edge template that ties them all together! Templates are reusable and keep the configuration consistent for every SSR1200 you deploy. - Page 11 4. Make sure that IP Configuration is set to be learned from DHCP, and that Source NAT is enabled. 5. Click Add. Configure the LAN Port Next, associate your LAN network segment with the appropriate port on the SSR1200. Scroll to the LAN section of the template, and click Add LAN. Video: Add LAN Configuration From the Network dropdown menu, select your network segment to associate it with the LAN port.
- Page 12 Select Server under DHCP to provide DHCP services to endpoints on this network. Give your DHCP server an address pool starting with 192.168.1.100 and ending with 192.168.1.200. Enter 192.168.1.1 as the gateway to be assigned to DHCP clients. Finally, enter the IP addresses for the DNS Servers to be assigned to clients on the network. For example, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4.
- Page 13 Configure Traffic Steering and Application Policies Your template has the WAN and LAN information. Now, you need to tell the SSR1200 how to use the information to connect users to applications. This is done using traffic steering and application policies.
- Page 14 2. Click the Assign to Site button, and select the site where you want the template configuration applied. Assign the SSR1200 to a Site After the SSR1200 is onboarded to the Mist cloud, you'll need to assign it to a site so you can begin to manage the configuration and gather data in Mist cloud.
