Wired AssurancedefinesSLEs (Service Level Expectations)to provide measurable performance indicators for wired networks. These metrics identify root causes of network degradation by monitoring switch health, connection success, and throughput performance.

“Juniper Mist Wired Assurance delivers AI-driven insights across key wired SLEs including Successful Connects, Throughput, and Switch Health, giving visibility into user experience and switch performance.”

Option A (Capacity):Incorrect — capacity is used in wireless SLEs, not wired.

Option B (Successful Connects):Correct— tracks connection success rate and anomalies.

Option C (Switch Health):Correct— monitors hardware, software, and PoE status.

Option D (Coverage):Incorrect — pertains to wireless SLEs.

Option E (Throughput):Correct— measures data transfer rate, latency, jitter, and loss.

In theJuniper Mist AI for Wired dashboard, administrators can select one or more switch ports (as shown in the exhibit, e.g., port ge-0/0/25 on an EX4100-48MP). Once configuration changes are made — such as VLAN assignment, port profiles, PoE settings, or administrative state — theSave buttonmust be clicked to confirm and apply those changes to the device.

“When making configuration changes in the Mist switch interface, the Save button must be used to confirm the modifications. Clicking Save applies the selected port settings to the switch through Mist Cloud.”

Option Ais incorrect: saving does not create a backup. Backups and snapshots are handled through Mist’s configuration archive, not via the Save button.

Option Bis incorrect: Save does not reset configuration; instead, it commits changes.

Option Cis incorrect: there is no preview function tied to Save.

Option Dis correct: the Save button is explicitly forapplying configuration changesto the selected switch or port(s).

According to Juniper Mist documentation, the Throughput Service Level Expectation (SLE) is the primary metric used to measure the ability of wired clients to pass traffic across the physical network without impedance. This SLE is critical for diagnosing issues with real-time, high-bandwidth applications such as video streams, which are highly sensitive to packet loss and latency. Within the Throughput SLE, the Storm Control classifier is specifically designed to identify "bad user minutes" caused by the suppression of Broadcast, Unknown Unicast, and Multicast (BUM) traffic.

Storm control is a mechanism that enables the switch to monitor traffic levels and drop BUM packets when a specified traffic level—known as the storm control level—is exceeded. This prevents a "traffic storm" from proliferating and degrading the overall performance of the LAN. While this is a vital security feature to prevent network meltdowns, it can inadvertently impact legitimate traffic. For instance, if multicast-based video streams or other heavy BUM traffic exceed the configured bandwidth percentage on a port, the switch will drop those packets to protect the rest of the network.

When troubleshooting video stream issues, network administrators should inspect the Storm Control classifier to see if it is triggering "bad user minutes". If the Mist dashboard indicates failures under this classifier, it signifies that the switch hardware is actively dropping packets because the BUM traffic limit has been reached. This provides immediate root-cause evidence, allowing the administrator to determine if they need to adjust the storm control thresholds within the Port Profile or investigate the source of the excessive broadcast traffic. By correlating these hardware-level events with the end-user experience, Mist AI simplifies the resolution of complex performance problems that traditional "up/down" monitoring would miss.
