Overview

The Juniper Networks Secure Access 6000 (SA 6000) SSL VPN appliances is designed for medium to large enterprises and features best-in-class performance, scalability, and redundancy for organizations with high-volume secure access and authorization requirements. The SA 6000 hardware platform is designed to scale to the largest enterprise deployments and to optimize application delivery, with available options that include redundant hot swappable hard disks, power supplies and fans, as well as GBIC-based multiple Ethernet ports for redundant or meshed configurations. The SA 6000 appliance also features a state-of-the-art SSL acceleration chipset to speed CPU-intensive encrypt/decrypt processes, as well as built in compression for all traffic.

Like all products built on the IVE platform, the SA 6000 uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), available in all Web browsers, as a means of secure transport. This appliance enables the enterprise to provide remote access to mobile employees and contractors without deploying client software, as well as secure extranet or intranet access with no DMZ build-out, server hardening, Web agent deployments, or ongoing maintenance.

The SA 6000 appliance comes with the streamlined feature set that an enterprise would need to deploy secure remote access, as well as a basic customer/partner extranet or secure intranet. The Advanced license enables additional sophisticated features that meet the needs of more complex deployments with diverse audiences and use cases, as well as Juniper's Central Manager.

Options

Secure Application Manager (SAM) and Network Connect (NC) Upgrade

Using SAM, administrators can provide the full functionality of client-server applications when and where required. Using NC, administrators can also provide all of the functionality of an IPSec VPN and an SSL VPN from one platform, reducing overall cost and simplifying day-day management.

Advanced Feature Set

The Advanced Feature Set includes additional sophisticated capabilities that will meet the needs of more complex deployments with diverse audiences and use cases, including Central Manager, customized user interfaces, Single Sign-On and multiple hostname support.

Secure Meeting

Juniper Networks' Secure Meeting option enables enterprises to instantly and securely provision online meetings and user-to-user collaboration. The Secure Meeting option is a cost-effective, easy to use "point and click" Web conferencing tool which, like SSL VPN, requires no software to be deployed and enables communication between virtual teams to share applications in real-time. It is a flexible cross enterprise infrastructure with no operating system dependencies, offers the high level of security of SSL VPN and even has integrated Microsoft OutlookTM invitation capabilities.

Advanced Endpoint Defense: Malware Protection (for additional users)

Integrated malware protection for a specific number of users comes with each appliance out of the box, with the capabilities to add coverage for additional users. It enables enterprises to dynamically deliver malware protection to endpoints, disabling threats such as Trojan Horses, key loggers, remote controls and monitoring applications.

Clustering

Secure Access offers clustering for high availability to multiply aggregate throughput for unexpected bursts in traffic and mitigating resource intensive application use, as well as providing stateful failover capabilities from one appliance to another.

SSL Acceleration

SSL Acceleration (available on select platforms) enhances performance by offloading intensive encrypt/decrypt processes from the CPU.

ICE (In Case of Emergency)

The need for remote access capabilities in the event of a disaster (e.g. pandemic) can put a sudden strain on remote connectivity requirements as more employees, partners and customers suddenly create a burst of demand. ICE delivers on that sudden peak in demand by providing the ability for a company to have immediate response by expanding remote access connectivity in a cost effective manner. ICE (available on select platforms) provides licenses for a large number of additional users on a Secure Access SSL VPN appliance for a limited time.

SSL Instant Virtual Systems (IVS)

IVS (available on select platforms) is a framework that enables administrators or service providers to completely segment SSL VPN traffic between multiple groups or customers within a single appliance/cluster. IVS features (available on select platforms) complete application-layer, network-layer and access management virtualization so that end groups can have the experience of their own SSL VPN deployment, while the administrator only has to manage one device or cluster.

Accessories

A variety of accessories including spare racks and power cords are available for Secure Access. GBIC-based ports for the SA6000 provide flexibility to select SX, LX, and copper-based interfaces.
