Juniper SRX Series: A Comprehensive Guide to Security Services on the SRX Series

by Brad Woodberg, Rob Cameron

Overview

This complete field guide, authorized by Juniper Networks, is the perfect hands-on reference for deploying, configuring, and operating Juniper’s SRX Series networking device. Authors Brad Woodberg and Rob Cameron provide field-tested best practices for getting the most out of SRX deployments, based on their extensive field experience.

While their earlier book, Junos Security, covered the SRX platform, this book focuses on the SRX Series devices themselves. You'll learn how to use SRX gateways to address an array of network requirements—including IP routing, intrusion detection, attack mitigation, unified threat management, and WAN acceleration. Along with case studies and troubleshooting tips, each chapter provides study questions and lots of useful illustrations.

• Explore SRX components, platforms, and various deployment scenarios

• Configure, troubleshoot, and deploy SRX in a highly available manner
• Design and configure an effective security policy in your network
