Security Features for EX Series Switches Overview
Juniper Networks Junos operating system (Junos OS) is a network operating system that
has been hardened through the separation of control forwarding and services planes,
with each function running in protected memory. The control-plane CPU is protected by
rate limiting, routing policy, and firewall filters to ensure switch uptime even under severe
attack. In addition, the switches fully integrate with the Juniper Networks Unified Access
Control (UAC) product to provide both standards-based 802.1X port-level access and
Layer 2 through Layer 4 policy enforcement based on user identity. Access port security
features such as dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection, DHCP snooping,
and MAC limiting are controlled through a single Junos OS CLI command.
Juniper Networks EX Series Ethernet Switches provide the following hardware and
software security features:
Console Port
—Allows use of the console port to connect to the Routing Engine through
an RJ-45 cable. You then use the command-line interface (CLI) to configure the switch.
