Juniper Mist delivers Automatic Feature Updates, Wireless Assurance, and Asset Tracking as core platform features.
Automatic feature updates: As part of its cloud architecture, Juniper Mist provides bi-weekly, hitless automatic updates for features and security, delivered seamlessly from the cloud without service interruption or manual intervention. Mist documentation states, "New features, security patches, and updates are automatically added on a bi-weekly basis without interruptions or service downtime. This dramatically simplifies and improves service operations for network IT administrators."
Wireless Assurance: Wireless Assurance is Mist’s flagship cloud service that leverages AI and machine learning to automate wireless network operations, delivering predictable, reliable, and measurable Wi-Fi experiences. It provides deep visibility into client states, sets service level expectations (SLEs), and uses Marvis actions and AI-driven recommendations to ensure root-cause identification and proactive troubleshooting—"Mist Wi-Fi Assurance is a cloud service based on machine learning (ML) and driven by Mist AI... designed for the smart device era."
Asset tracking: Asset Visibility/Tracking uses vBLE technology and Wi-Fi to track and locate assets and IoT devices within an organization, integrating with Juniper Mist Cloud for real-time and historical analytics. According to the Asset Visibility datasheet: "Mist Asset Visibility is a cloud service that enables real-time tracking and historical location analytics of people, assets, and IoT devices."
Controller firmware updates and perpetual AP licenses are not listed features of the Mist cloud architecture; Mist uses a cloud-based control plane and subscription-based licensing for its platform.
