Data Sheet

Junos Subscriber Aware

Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal

Edge Routers

The MX Series portfolio of Ethernet services routers is the industry

leader for carrier Ethernet capacity, density, and performance.

Optimized for emerging Ethernet network architectures and

services, the MX Series is purpose-built for the most demanding

carrier and enterprise applications, and it leverages Juniper

Networks Junos operating system to enable carriers and

enterprises to seamlessly and cost-effectively deploy Ethernet

and accelerate their next-generation network deployments. By

combining a best-in-class hardware platform with the reliability

and service flexibility of Junos OS, the MX Series delivers a

combination of features and capabilities previously unattainable

in carrier Ethernet deployments.

Multiservices Cards (MS-MPC)

MS-MPCs are next-generation, advanced service modules for the

MX Series. They deliver the performance, services, and scalability

that are critical to today’s advanced Ethernet services edge and

broadband edge networks. MS-MPCs are full slot modules that

supply hardware acceleration for an array of packet processing-

intensive services for the MX2020, MX2010, MX960, MX480, and

MX240 3D Universal Edge Routers.

In addition to supporting Junos Application Aware, Junos

Subscriber Aware, and Junos Policy Control, these cards offer

flexible support for stateful firewall, Network Address Translation

(NAT), IPsec, anomaly detection, flow monitoring and accounting,

and tunnel services. This wide array of services enables service

providers and enterprises to secure their network infrastructure;

collect rich statistics for billing, capacity planning, and security

purposes; and create new services, all with a single module.

Features and Benefits

Service Integration

Junos Subscriber Aware is integrated with a wide variety of Junos

OS software protocols and applications, such as Junos Policy

Control, Junos Application Aware, Junos Network Secure, Junos

VPN Secure, Junos Address Aware, and Junos Traffic Vision, to

name just a few. These Junos OS services can be layered to

create an enhanced, customized service experience; for example,

the tight coupling of Junos Subscriber Aware and Junos Address

Aware enables granular per subscriber application identification,

analysis, control, and reporting, as well as the invocation of

policy-based network modification (bandwidth, QoS) based on

the dynamically identified presence of an application/subscriber

combination. Tight integration with MPLS provides all of the

benefits of IP-layer awareness.

Integration with Juniper Networks SRC Series Session and

Resource Control Modules provides call admission control

(CAC) and traffic engineering based on true network awareness.

It permits the dynamic modification of system and network

resources in response to real-time changes in the application

mix, ensuring the quality of video and voice applications—even

as subscribers consume other services over the same physical

connection. Additionally, policies restricting subscribers or

applications to a maximum number of multicast groups or

maximum bandwidth can be created to protect downstream

facility bandwidth from oversubscription, while flow- and port-

based rate shaping policies can be enforced to deliver an assured

traffic rate that is independent of line or service speed.
