Juniper Networks NetScreen-5200/NetScreen-5400

Firewall VPN Security with Netscreen-5000 series from Juniper Networks


    • Line of purpose-built, high-performance firewall/VPN security systems designed for large enterprise, carrier, and data center networks
    • Switch fabric for data exchange and separate multibus channel for control information
    • Virtualization capabilities to allow multiple customers or enterprise departments to be secured by a single security system
 

Overview

The Juniper Networks NetScreen-5000 series is a line of purpose-built, high-performance firewall/VPN security systems designed to deliver a new level of high-performance capabilities for large enterprise, carrier, and data center networks. The NetScreen-5000 series consists of two products: the 2-slot NetScreen-5200 system and the 4-slot NetScreen-5400 system. NetScreen-5000 security systems integrate firewall, VPN, DoS and DDoS protection, and traffic-management functionality, in a low-profile modular chassis. Built around Juniper's third-generation security ASIC and distributed system architecture, the NetScreen-5000 series offers excellent scalability and flexibility, while providing a higher level security system through Juniper Networks NetScreen ScreenOS custom operating system. Both products employ a switch fabric for data exchange and separate multibus channel for control information, delivering scalable performance for the most demanding environments.


 

Features and Benefits

Key features and benefits of the NetScreen-5000 security systems include the following:

  • Modular, chassis-based security systems that offer flexible and scalable solutions for large enterprises and carriers
  • Comprehensive high-availability solution for sub-second failover between interfaces or devices
  • Full mesh configurations to allow for redundant physical paths in the network, thereby providing maximum resiliency and uptime
  • Virtual System support to allow partitioning into multiple security domains, each with a unique set of administrators, policies, VPNs, and address books
  • Interface flexibility for varying network-connectivity requirements and future growth requirements
  • Virtual Router support to map internal, private, or overlapped IP addresses to a new IP address, providing an alternate route to the final destination and concealing it from public view
  • Customizable security zones to increase interface density without additional hardware expenditures, lower policy-creation costs, contain unauthorized users and attacks, and simplify management of firewall/VPNs
  • Transparent mode to allow the device to function as a Layer 2 IP security bridge, providing firewall, VPN, and DoS protections, with minimal change to the existing network
  • Management through graphical Web UI, CLI, or Juniper Networks NetScreen-Security Manager™ central management system
  • Policy-based management to allow centralized, end-to-end life-cycle management

Managing Your Network Security

Take a tour of the NetScreen-Security Manager system to see how to manage Juniper Networks integrated FW/VPN devices. This demo shows how to use this centralized, rule-based management platform to manage every aspect of the device life cycle, including all device, network, and security functionality, through a single, user-friendly interface. This demo will also show how to accomplish some key activities, such as how to set up a device, create a security policy, configure a VPN, investigate security incidents, and pull reports. See how easy it is to manage network security with the NetScreen-Security Manager system efficiently completing security tasks. See the demo
