The Juniper J6350 Services Router # lines are currently the most powerful on the list of J-series routers. This run on JUNOS, Junipers proprietary network OS. Juniper has partnered with Avaya which gives the J-series packet voice capabilities. The router is constructed with 4 GigE ports, 6 PIM slots for LAN/WAN and 4 Memory expansion slots for easy upgrading and connectivity and comes equipped with optional repetitive power source (AC/DC). It assists several interfaces, which include an expandable WAN/LAN interface.
The demand of branch/regional workplaces today is becoming more significant with all the current requirement for superior safety measures to ensure the optimum efficiency. High speed broadband accessibility today is capable of delivering Ethernet connections, which places more requirement on routers by the necessity, for greater performance and better security will simply grow and in this, the Juniper J6350 Services Router, offers.
The Juniper J6350 Service Router can be a desktop, so it will be very easy to handle and look after. RAM can be expanded as much as 2 Gigabytes (default 1 GB). Flash Memory can be expanded up to 1 GB (default 256 MB). Performance is 2+ Gbps for big packet forwarding, 1 Gbps for IMIX forwarding and 500 Mbps for VPN. The router supports an array of layer 2 access protocols, routing protocols along with data link protocols as well to accommodate an institutions needs.
The Juniper J6350 Service Router delivers predictable performance with added security capability. Probably the most important direct benefits you receive is simply because it runs on Junipers unique fault-protected and modular operating-system (OS) JUNOS that distinguish it from traditional routers in their class since all software modules of JUNOS run independently and, therefore, do not impact one another. JUNOS unique structure leads to obtaining the packet forwarding and the routing engines run absolutely separate from one another, giving J-series# routers a superior level of immunity from DDos attacks by permitting the operator to incorporate new policies and filters that could mitigate this. For security purposes, it uses several authentication methods including LDAP, RADIUS, SecureID and Secure Shell. For data encryption, you do have a range of different algorithms AES, DES, MD5, SGA-1 or Triple DES. One small disadvantage here obviously is you really need to be familiar with the JUNOS OS if you are switching from a different system.
Other useful attributes of the Juniper J6350 Services Router # include high content filtering, DHCP support, Integrated Stateful Firewall, 56/168/256 – bitnencryption, LDAP support, MPLS support, Traffic shaping, Syslog, Upgradable firmware, VLAN support, WAN acceleration and Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED). It has Network Address Translation capability and innovative services which incorporates IPv6, IPSec, J-Flow accounting, Multicast, MPLS and VPN which can be all very helpful in modern regional/branch offices. If you would like, one could avail to obtain an optional third party security suite installed from the factory which incorporates anti-virus, anti-spam, web filtering and intrusion protection applications.
