On a Juniper SRX chassis cluster, the primary command you need is: This single command reveals, for each redundancy group (RG), which node is primary (active) and which is secondary (standby). Beyond that, you can monitor the cluster in real time with: …and drill into session‐sync health with: These commands together give you a clear,... » read more
A Juniper firewall—most prominently delivered as the SRX Series Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)—is Juniper Networks’ integrated security solution designed to protect enterprise, data center, service provider, and cloud environments against modern threats. By combining stateful packet inspection, application awareness, intrusion prevention (IPS), unified threat management (UTM), SSL/TLS decryption, and dynamic threat intelligence into a single platform,... » read more
Connecting a Windows 10 workstation to a Juniper Networks environment can encompass two primary scenarios: Local Management Access – Physically accessing and managing Junos OS devices (routers, switches, or firewalls) via the console port from a Windows 10 PC. Remote Secure Access – Establishing an SSL VPN tunnel from Windows 10 into a corporate Juniper... » read more
Advertising networks via BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) on Juniper’s Junos OS requires defining which prefixes you want to share with your peers and then applying export policies to your BGP groups. Unlike some platforms where you simply use a network statement under the BGP process, Junos OS leverages its powerful policy-options framework to control route... » read more

F5 BIG-IP’s firewall functionality is delivered through its Advanced Firewall Manager (AFM) module, which transforms the ADC’s full-proxy data plane into a stateful, context-aware network firewall. By terminating and inspecting all traffic, AFM enforces granular security policies—ranging from global rules to per-virtual server controls—while leveraging hardware acceleration for high throughput and DDoS mitigation. In addition,... » read more
F5 BIG-IP integrates firewall functionality directly into its Application Delivery Controller (ADC) architecture, delivering a full-proxy, stateful network firewall through the Advanced Firewall Manager (AFM) module, while also offering basic packet filtering out of the box via the Local Traffic Manager (LTM) module’s Global Packet Filter. In practice, this means F5 can simultaneously distribute and... » read more
