Juniper M Series - Features

Features

Features and services supported in M Series routers include advanced IP/MPLS edge routing services, a broad array of VPNs, network-based security, real-time voice and video, bandwidth on demand, rich multicast of premium content, IPv6 services, granular accounting etc. These IP/MPLS M Series Multiservice Edge Routing platforms are deployed at the edge of provider networks, in small and medium cores, and in peering, route reflector and data-center applications.

A single M Series Multiservice Edge Routing platform can provide a single point of edge aggregation for thousands of customers over any access type — including ATM, Frame Relay, Ethernet and TDM and at any speed from DS0 up to OC-192/STM-64 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

It also supports Layer 2 virtual circuits, Layer 2 VPNs, Layer 2.5 Interworking VPNs, Layer 3 2547 VPNs, VPLS, IPSec, GRE, IP over IP and other tunneling mechanisms.

It supports multiple levels of granular Quality of Service per port, per logical circuit (DLCI, VC/VP, VLAN), and per channel (to DS0) for traffic prioritization. These comprehensive QoS functions include classification, rate limiting, shaping, weighted round-robin scheduling, strict priority queuing, weighted random early detection, random early detection and packet marking. For network convergence applications, Layer 2 CoS can be mapped to Layer 3 CoS on a per DLCI, per VP/VC, or per-VLAN basis.

It also supports highly scalable J-Protect filtering capabilities, unicast reverse path forwarding and high-performance rate limiting for industry-leading DOS attack protection. The J-Protect security capabilities of the M Series platforms can be further enhanced with the Adaptive Services PIC, hardware that accelerates additional network-based security services such as high-speed NAT, stateful firewall with attack detection, DPI/IDP capabilities and J-Flow accounting. The M Series routing platforms have fulfilled the criteria for ICSA Labs Corporate Firewall Certification Version 4.0. ICSA Labs, an independent division of TruSecure Corporation, tests and certifies over 90 percent of security technology products in the world.

Famous quotes containing the word features:

    All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Each reader discovers for himself that, with respect to the simpler features of nature, succeeding poets have done little else than copy his similes.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
