How does config rollback work in Mist for SSR?

After a device is adopted or claimed, it automatically receives configurations from the Juniper Mist portal.

If the configuration is valid, the device waits five minutes and then checks its connection to the Mist cloud. 

If the connection is good, the configuration proceeds.

If there are issues:

• Invalid Configuration: If a new configuration is invalid, the device rejects it and returns to the last

valid configuration.

• Poor Connectivity: If the device loses connectivity after the five-minute wait period, it rolls back to the previous configuration. This auto-rollback feature ensures that the device quickly returns to a working configuration.

What you might see in the Mist UI on the SSR page if the SSR rejects the config from Mist:

Status: Connected

Errors: Config Reverted

Last Config: Config Failed
