DATASHEET
Product Overview
The Juniper Networks SSG300 line
consists of purpose-built security
appliances that deliver the ideal
blend of performance, security,
routing, and LAN/WAN connectivity
for large, regional branch offices and
medium-size, standalone businesses.
Traffic flowing in and out of a regional
office or business is protected
from worms, spyware, trojans, and
malware by a complete set of Unified
Threat Management security features,
including stateful firewall, IPsec VPN,
intrusion prevention system (IPS),
antivirus (includes antispyware,
antiadware, antiphishing), antispam,
and Web filtering. The SSG300 line
comprises the SSG350M and the
SSG320M Secure Services Gateways.
Product Description
The Juniper Networks® SSG300 line of secure services gateways comprises highperformance security platforms that help businesses stop internal and external attacks,
prevent unauthorized access, and achieve regulatory compliance. The Juniper Networks
SSG350M Secure Services Gateway provides 500 Mbps of stateful firewall performance
and 225 Mbps of IPsec VPN performance, while the Juniper Networks SSG320M Secure
Services Gateway provides 400 Mbps of stateful firewall performance and 175 Mbps of
IPsec VPN performance.
These products focus on three key disciplines:
Security: Protection against worms, viruses, trojans, spam, and emerging malware
is delivered by proven Unified Threat Management (UTM) security features that are
backed by best-in-class partners. To address internal security requirements and facilitate
regulatory compliance, the SSG300 line supports an advanced set of network protection
features such as security zones, virtual routers, and VLANs that allow administrators to
divide the network into distinct, secure domains, each with their own unique security
policy. Policies protecting each security zone can include access control rules and
inspection by any of the supported UTM security features.

Connectivity and Routing: The SSG300 line provides four onboard
10/100/1000 interfaces complemented by I/O expansion slots that
can house a mix of LAN or WAN interfaces, making the SSG300
line an extremely flexible platform. The broad array of I/O options
coupled with WAN protocol and encapsulation support makes the
SSG300 line of gateways easily deployable as traditional branch
oce routers or as consolidated security and routing devices, which
can help reduce CapEx and OpEx.
Access Control Enforcement: The SSG300 line of gateways can act
as enforcement points in a Juniper Networks Unified Access Control
deployment with the simple addition of the Juniper Networks IC
management engine by interacting with the SSG300 line to augment
or replace the firewall-based access control. It grants/denies access
based on more granular criteria, including endpoint state and user
identity in order to accommodate the dramatic shis in attack
landscape and user characteristics.
In addition, Juniper Networks Professional Services will collaborate
with your team to identify goals, define the deployment process,
create or validate the network design, and manage the deployment
to its successful conclusion. Whether it involves simple lab testing
or a major network implementation, Juniper Networks Professional
Services is there to help you ensure success.
