SRX5800 Services Gateway Description

The SRX5800 Services Gateway is a high-performance, highly-scalable, carrier-class security device with multi-processor architecture.

The services gateway provides 12 slots that youn can populate with two or three Switch Control Boards (SCBs) and up to 12 additional cards of the following types:

  • Services Processing Cards (SPCs) provide the procesing capacity to run integrated services such as firewall, IPsec, and IDP.
  • I/O Cards (IOCs) provide Ethernet interfaces that connect the services gateway to your network.
  • Flex I/O Cards (Flex IOCs) are similar to IOCs, but have slots for port modules that allow you greater flexibility in adding different types of Ethernet ports to your services gateway.
