NSMXpress Overview:
Now more than ever, network operators need the ability to easily manage security policies and to have visibility into potential security concerns in the network. At the same time, they need to invest their time in monitoring and operating secure networks. Juniper Networks NSMXpress enables IT departments not only to control the entire device life cycle with a single, centralized solution, but also provides visibility with a complete set of investigative and reporting tools.
Juniper Networks® NSMXpress and NSM3000 are purpose built security hardened appliance versions of Juniper Networks Network and Security Manager (NSM) optimized towards providing a single centralized management solution to effectively manage Juniper Networks family of devices including routers, switches, and firewalls.
While the NSMXpress is primarily geared towards small to mid market, the NSM3000 scales to the requirements of large enterprise customers with the capability to manage up to 1,500 devices. These appliances, which install in minutes with high availability (HA) support, not only simplify the complexity of device administration by providing a single integrated management interface that controls every device parameter, but also eliminate the need to have dedicated resources for maintaining the management solution.
NSM3000 and NSMXpress have the following features:
- Provides appliance version of NSM
- Offers centralized, end-to-end device life cycle management for granular control of configuration, network settings and security policies
- Allows for delegation of administrative roles, which provides relevant access to those who need it
- Offers easy installation with operational efficiency that delivers lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
- Provides dedicated HA support
