Product Description

The Juniper Networks^® SRX4100 and SRX4200 Firewalls are high-performance, next-generation firewalls with hardware-acceleration that protects mission-critical data center networks, enterprise campuses, and regional headquarters. The SRX4100 and SRX4200 are an integral part of the Juniper Connected Security framework, which extends security to every point of connection on the network to safeguard users, data, and the infrastructure from advanced threats.

The SRX4100 and SRX4200 integrate networking and security in a single platform to deliver industry-leading intrusion prevention and malware protection with, high-performance throughput, IPSec VPN, and easy policy management to reliably secure the network. Advanced application identification and classification enables greater visibility, enforcement, control, and protection over network traffic, application access, and data. . These next-generation firewalls provide detailed analyses of application volume and usage, fine-grained application control policies, and prioritization of traffic based on application information and context to reduce complexity across traditional, cloud, and hybrid IT networks.

The SRX4100 and SRX4200 deliver fully automated to both enterprises and service providers. Their high performance and scale allow the SRX4100 and SRX4200 to act as VPN hubs, terminating VPN/secure overlay connections in various SD-WAN topologies.

Both SRX4100 and SRX4200 Firewalls are managed by Juniper Networks Security Director Cloud, a unified management experience that connects the organization’s current deployments with future architectural rollouts. Security Director Cloud uses a single policy framework enabling consistent security policies across any environment and expanding zero trust to all parts of the network from the edge into the data center. This provides unbroken visibility, policy configuration, administration, and collective threat intelligence all in one place. The SRX4100 and SRX4200 comply with industry standards, delivering scalability, ease of management, secure connectivity, and advanced threat mitigation capabilities that businesses need.

Architecture and Key Components

The SRX4100 and SRX4200 hardware and software architecture provides cost-effective security performance in a small 1 RU form factor. Purpose-built to protect up to 44 Gbps Internet Mix (IMIX) firewall throughput network environments, the SRX4100 and SRX4200 incorporate multiple security services and networking functions on top of the industry- leading Juniper Networks Junos^® operating system.

The SRX4100 supports up to 22 Gbps (IMIX) of firewall performance, 13.9 Gbps of IPS throughput , and 14.8 Gbps of IPsec VPN in data center, enterprise campus, and regional headquarters deployments with IMIX traffic patterns. The SRX4200 supports up to 44 Gbps of firewall performance, 27.7 Gbps of IPS throughput, and up to 29.6 Gbps of IPsec VPN in data center, enterprise campus, and regional headquarters deployments with IMIX traffic patterns.
