This month’s featured router is Juniper’s SRX210 Services Gateway. In 2009, the SRX210 from Juniper took top honors in the SMB Infrastructure category at Interop Tokyo. With the ability to support an unrestricted number of users, the
SRX210 Services Gateway supports up to 75 Mbps IPSec VPN, 750 Mbps firewall, and 80 Mbps IPS, making it an extremely secure router. With additional security features like Unified Threat Management (UTM) consisting of: IPS, antispam,Web filtering, and antivirus protection, the SRX210 is well suited for securing small distributed enterprise locations. We love this router.
But it’s not the only Juniper router we feel is worth mentioning. Juniper has a history of offering highly secure, affordable network hardware products and the Juniper T640 is no exception. As one of five highly scalable routers in the Juniper T-Series, the T640 Core Router offers scalable core routing at only a fraction of the size competitors offer. Each of The T640′s eight slots delivers 40 Gbps and is scalable beyond that capacity.
Juniper routers retain their value for years. Whether you’re interested in the proven T640, or the newer, top of the line SRX210, learning more about Juniper routers and whether a refurbished or new router is right for your company’s needs is an important step in educating yourself about solid, secure network hardware and the benefits the right router can provide.
