To solve for the missing value $$ \square $$ in the equation:

$$
124 + (211 + 342) = 124 + (342 + \square)
$$

Let's break it down step by step:

1. **Compute the left side of the equation:**
   $$
   124 + (211 + 342) = 124 + 553 = 677
   $$

2. **Express the right side of the equation:**
   $$
   124 + (342 + \square) = 124 + 342 + \square = 466 + \square
   $$

3. **Set the two sides equal to each other and solve for $$ \square $$:**
   $$
   466 + \square = 677
   $$
   $$
   \square = 677 - 466 = 211
   $$

**Answer:** $$ \boxed{211} $$
The missing value $$ \square $$ is 211.
