Product Description
The Juniper Networks
®
SRX1500 Services Gateway is a high-performance next-generation
firewall and security services gateway that protects mission-critical enterprise campuses,
regional headquarters, and data center networks. The SRX1500 is the only product in its
class that not only provides best-in-class security and threat mitigation capabilities, but
also integrates carrier-class routing and feature-rich switching in a single platform.
The SRX1500 delivers a next-generation security solution that supports the changing
needs of cloud-enabled enterprise networks. Whether rolling out new services in an
enterprise campus, connecting to the cloud, complying with industry standards, or
achieving operational efficiency, the SRX1500 helps organizations realize their business
objectives while providing scalable, easy to manage, secure connectivity and advanced
threat mitigation capabilities. The SRX1500 protects key corporate assets as a next-
generation firewall, acts as an enforcement point for cloud-based security solutions, and
provides application visibility and control to improve the user and application experience.
A combination of new hardware and software architectures on the SRX1500 add
significant performance improvements to a small 1 U form factor. The key to the SRX1500
hardware is the security flow accelerator, a programmable high-speed Layer 4 firewall
chip, and a powerful x86-based security compute engine for advanced security services
like application visibility, intrusion prevention, and threat mitigation capabilities. The
SRX1500 software architecture leverages these programmable hardware components and
virtualization to deliver high-speed firewall performance, application visibility, and intrusion
prevention while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO).
The SRX1500 is purpose-built to protect 10GbE network environments, consolidating
multiple security services and networking functions in a highly available appliance. It
supports up to 9 Gbps of firewall performance, 3 Gbps of intrusion prevention, and 4 Gbps
of IPsec VPN in enterprise campus, regional headquarters, and data center deployments.
SRX1500 Highlights
The SRX1500 Services Gateway delivers a full complement of next-generation firewall
capabilities that use advanced application identification and classification to enable
greater visibility, enforcement, control, and protection over the network. It provides detailed
analysis on application volume and usage, fine-grained application control policies to allow
or deny traffic based on dynamic application name or group names, and prioritization of
traffic based on application information and contexts.
The SRX1500 recognizes more than 3,500 applications and nested applications in plain-
text or SSL encrypted transactions. The SRX1500 also integrates with Microsoft Active
Directory and combines user information with application data to provide network-wide
application and user visibility and control.
