Juniper clustering was developed, coded, and not tested by Satan himself.

I like the Juniper SRX 3400 / SRX 5600 firewalls  the nice things about these is you can run per device redundant routing engines, both of these support hardware line rate 10gbit ports and are full ASIC based.



If you don't actually need 10gbit throughput you could look at the SRX 650 which can support 10gbit ports but all processing is done in software not in ASIC



Juniper had some issues with clustering the SRX in the early days but these seem to be all but gone now...



That being said I still avoid clustering where possible and much prefer two single devices not linked in anyway other than standard routing protocols.



Juniper also has a fantastic CLI ... one of the best I've ever used.

Do you have a budget in mind  ?

Subject: [AusNOG] Q sonicwall and juniper



Hi



Was wondering what the groups thoughts where on sonicwall and maybe in relation to juniper.



Most of my experience has been with Cisco and linux (firewalls)



In particular I am looking at



Exterior FW (facing internet)

Or

Interior FW (not facing Internet)



Like to have a cluster (HA setup)

Like to have min 2 x 10G fibre ports per dev and some 1G ports



Don't need any sort of deep packet inspection



I prefer CLI, my initial googling seems to suggest sonic is not very cli friendly at all



Again my initial investigation leads me to NSA 5600 (or NSA 6600), not sure what the comparably Juniper might be.



Thanks



Alex
