🌲Juniper Mist

Learn how to import and export maps, access point locations, and access point settings to and from Juniper Mist.

Hamina Network Planner includes integration with Juniper Mist, which can be used for both Import and Export purposes.

The Import function will bring the map, scale, and access points (including model, name, MAC, serial, transmit power, channel, and channel width settings) into Hamina Network Planner. Then, you can add walls, attenuating objects, and scope zones to simulate the current Juniper Mist network configuration in a predictive model.

The Export function rapidly deploys a new site, or updates an existing site directly from Hamina Network Planner. This removes the need for any repeat map-based deployment work - all of the mapping work is automatically copied directly from Hamina Network Planner.

Generating an API Token

1. Log into manage.mist.com.

2. Select your Organization.

3. In the toolbar on the left, select Organization > Settings.

   
4. Scroll down to the API Token section, and click Create Token.

   
5. Name the token, and select a permissions level for it. To import a site and use the Live View, either Helpdesk, Network Admin, or Super User is required. Note: For monitoring with the Live View, the Observer permission doesn't have enough permissions to perform all client monitoring, and you will receive some authentication error message.

6. Click Generate Token and then copy the token that appears in the Key field.
