SRX1400 SERVICES
GATEWAY
DATASHEET
Product Overview
The SRX1400 Services Gateway is
a professional-grade platform for
security ideally suited for small to
mid-size data centers, enterprise, and
service provider network deployments
where consolidated functionality,
uncompromising 10 Gbps performance,
compact environmental footprint, and
aordability are key requirements.
The SRX1400 expands the SRX Series
family of next-generation security
platforms, delivering market-leading
performance and extensive service
integration to 10GbE environments
where the features are required without
the massive scalability provided by
SRX3000 and SRX5000 lines.
The SRX1400 is available in two base
configurations oering a choice of
built-in high-density 1GbE ports or
combination of built-in 10GbE ports
and 1GbE ports. For enhanced flexibility,
the SRX1400 can use the integrated
SRX1400 NSPC processing card or
use separate NPC and SPC cards from
the SRX3000 line, simplifying sparing
logistics and interoperability. The
appliance includes one expansion slot
on the front panel.
Product Description
Juniper Networks® SRX1400 Services Gateway is the newest member of the market-
leading SRX Series data center line. Purpose-built to protect 10GbE network
environments, the SRX1400 consolidates multiple security services and networking
functions in a highly-available appliance. Featuring a modular design that uses common
form-factor modules serviceable from the front panel, the SRX1400 incorporates
innovation that improve reliability, enhance network availability and deliver deterministic
performance of concurrent security services at scale.
®
Combining Juniper’s Dynamic Services Architecture and Juniper Networks Junos
system with carrier-class features based on the proven design of the SRX3000 line of
services gateways, SRX1400 sets a new standard in value by extending the SRX Series
data center line to cost-effectively satisfy network security requirements in smaller
environments. Each SRX1400 Services Gateway consolidates multiple security services
in one chassis under one integrated security policy, while delivering the uncompromised
performance needed to support 10GbE environments in today’s high-performance networks.
Purpose-Built for Network Security Professionals
The SRX1400 is a carrier grade appliance designed from the ground up for long, trouble-free
service life of continuous operation in demanding, high-performance data center network
environments. Designed and produced using a TL 9000 registered quality management
system, the SRX1400 is 100% Juniper - software, support services and hardware including
innovative new chipsets to separate control and user planes, enabling performance to scale
to new levels required to meet the needs of high performance networks.
Dynamic Services Architecture
The high-end SRX Series uses the Juniper Dynamic Services Architecture to distribute
data sessions between multi-core processing resources dynamically, on-the-fly. Instead
of binding network traffic and services to specific CPU cores and processing resources
in a fixed or rigid manner, as other vendors do, Dynamic Services Architecture balances
traffic session processing work load dynamically within a pool formed from all available
resources. This avoids an all-too-common situation experienced on general-purpose
computing platforms used for security, where a subset of resources operate at or near
their maximum limits while other resources are under-used or idle.

The Dynamic Services Architecture in SRX Series Services
Gateways is what enables Juniper to deliver massive scalability,
market-leading throughput, and deterministic performance
with multiple security services operating concurrently. WIth the
chassis-based SRX Series gateways, additional processing cards
can be easily installed adding to the resource pool as your traffic
grows over time.
Converged Security Services
The SRX1400 consolidates multiple security services and
networking functions into one physical appliance by tightly
integrating the configuration, security policy, and device
management of these services within Junos OS. All services
are included in the Junos OS software image, and all services
are available when the software is running. This means that no
additional software components need to be, installed, activated
or configured when more services are needed, greatly simplifying
system administration and reducing costs. Services can be used or
not depending on the rules in the security policy.
Services available on the SRX1400 include:
• Stateful inspection of IPv4, IPv6, General Packet Radio Service
tunneling protocol (GTP), and applications at layers 4-7.
• IPsec VPN
• SSL decryption
• IP and GTP IPS
• Hardware assisted quality of service (QoS)
• Denial of service/distributed denial of service (DoS/DDoS)
protection, including protection from attacks on business and
application logic
• Dynamic routing
• Multiple (virtual) routing instances
• AppSecure
• AppDoS
• AppTrack
• Streams Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)
• Network Address Translation (NAT)
• Application-level gateways (ALGs)
SRX1400 Architecture and Key Components
Based on the time-tested, proven design of the SRX3000 line, the
SRX1400 delivers deterministic performance optimized for 10GbE.
A functional SRX1400 system consists of a base configuration
together with a Network and Services Processing Card (NSPC)
designed specifically for the SRX1400, or a combination of base
configuration together with interchangeable SRX3000 line
processing cards. The capability of the SRX1400 to use SRX3000
line cards can provide significant advantages and a lower total
cost of ownership (TCO). Customers can simplify operations
and maintenance by using one common security policy and a
common set of spares that are compatible and interoperable
between SRX1400 and SRX3000 line services gateways. Policy
and configuration backup and restore operations, equipment
replacements, migration and upgrade from SRX1400 to the
SRX3000 line are straightforward.
With the exception of the hot-swappable fan tray, which is
accessible from the rear panel, all modules and connections on
the SRX1400 are accessible from the front panel.
Choice of Base Systems
Two base systems are available for the SRX1400 - a GE version
and a XGE version. Both base system versions include a discrete
2
Routing Engine module, one power supply (AC or DC
tray assembly.
GE-Base System
The GE-Base System contains twelve GbE ports. Six of the
twelve GbE ports are 10/ 100/ 1000 copper (RJ45), and six are
1000BASE-X. Two of the six 1000BASE-X ports can be used for
either high availability (HA) cluster control or as data ports. The
1000BASE-X ports accept small form-factor pluggable (SFP)
transceivers which are available in copper, short reach (SX)
multimode (MM fiber) and long reach (LX) single mode (SM fiber).
XGE-Base System
The XGE-Base System contains three ports of 10GbE and nine
ports of GbE. Six of the nine GbE ports are 10/100/1000 copper
(RJ45) and three are 1000BASE-X. Two of the three 1000BASE-X
ports can be used for either HA cluster control or as data ports.
The 1000BASE-X ports accept SFP transceivers which are
available in copper, SX (MM fiber) and LX (SM fiber). The three
10GbE ports accept SFP+ transceivers which are available in SR
(MM fiber), LR (SM fiber), and ER (SM fiber).
In addition to a base system, processing resources—either one
integrated NSPC, or the combination of one SRX3000 line NPC,
one SRX3000 line SPC, and one double wide tray—must be
installed in order to have an operational system.
