Conclusion
The security service found in Junos on the J-series and the SRX devices represents a significant increase in security, and the services capabilities in general for supported platforms. With Junos security services, users are no longer forced to compromise either services or routing when they opt for a single-box solution. Formerly, this required a multiple-chassis, best-of-breed approach, which added cost and complexity to the network.
In addition to the one-box benefits, that one box runs Junos software, albeit with security services enabled. This means that all the benefits and advantages of Junos are still available, and the majority of operational experience carries over directly, allowing you to immediately feel at home when using the security services.
