SA700 Overview:
The Juniper Networks SA700 SSL VPN Appliance enables small- to medium-sized enterprises to deploy remote access to the corporate network in a secure and cost-effective way. Because the SA700 uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to provide encrypted transport, it enables instant remote access from just a Web browser. This clientless architecture eliminates the high cost of installing, configuring and maintaining client software on every device, significantly reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) versus traditional VPN solutions. SSL delivery also eliminates the Network Address Translation (NAT) and firewall traversal issues encountered with traditional remote access products, allowing remote & mobile users reliable and ubiquitous access from external networks such as homes or hotels.
The Juniper Networks SA700 SSL VPN Appliance comes standard with Network Connect access method, which creates a secure network-layer connection via a lightweight, cross-platform dynamic download. The SA700 can also be upgraded to include Core Clientless access method, which enables connections from any device at any location to Web-enabled applications, including those with XML and Flash content, files, standards-based email, and telnet/SSH sessions. The SA700 appliance delivers enterprise-strength AAA (authentication, authorization, and accounting) and comprehensive endpoint defense.
Architecture and Key Components
Lower TCO
- Dependable technology tailored to the needs of small- to medium-sized enterprises by the SSL VPN market leader—Juniper Networks
- Plug-n-play appliance that installs in minutes with minimal IT knowledge required
- No client software deployment or maintenance—users only need an Internet connection for access
- Simple end user and administrator interfaces facilitate quick and easy use
- Improved productivity for remote employees
- No network interoperability issues
- Complete, secure access to LAN resources, ensuring that the endpoint device, data in transit and internal resources are secure.
- Seamless integration with broad range of authentication methods and protocols.

Features & Benefits:
The SA700 deploys quickly and easily, and it does not require the costly deployment and maintenance of individual client software on each device. The SA700 delivers an appliance tailored to the specific needs of small- to medium-sized companies, in an affordable plug-n-play form factor. Since the SA700 is designed primarily to address the remote access needs of smaller organizations, it will not have the same enterprise-class features found in Juniper Network SA2500, SA4500, or SA6500 SSL VPN Appliances. Please consult your Juniper Networks sales representative or authorized channel partner to ensure the correct SA Series model will address your remote access needs.

The SA700 integrates seamlessly with a broad range of authentication methods and protocols, and its hardened architecture effectively protects internal resources.
| Features | Features Description | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Native Host Checker | Client computers can be checked at the beginning and throughout the session to verify an acceptable security posture requiring or restricting network ports, checking files/processes, and validating their authenticity with Message Digest 5 (MD5) hash checksums. Performs version checks on security applications, and carries out pre-authentication checks and enforcement. |
|
| Host Checker API | Created in partnership with best-in-class endpoint security vendors, enables enterprises to enforce an endpoint trust policy for managed PCs that have personal firewall, antivirus clients, or other installed security clients, and quarantine non-compliant endpoints. | Uses current security policies with remote users and devices; easier management. |
| Host Checker server integration API | Enables enterprises to deliver and update third-party security agents from the SA700. |
|
| Hardened security appliance and Web server | Purpose-built hardware appliance and hardened security infrastructure, with no general purpose services, system-level user accounts or interactive shell. | Not designed to run any additional services and is less susceptible to attacks; no backdoors to exploit. |
| Security services employ kernel-level packet filtering and safe routing | Ensures that unauthenticated connection attempts, such as malformed packets or denial of service (DoS) attacks, are filtered out. | Effective protection against threats and attacks. |
| Cache cleaner | All proxy downloads and temp files installed during the session are erased at logout, ensuring that no data is left behind. | Ensures that no potentially sensitive session data is left behind on the endpoint machine. |
| Support for strong authentication methods and protocols including RADIUS, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), public key infrastructure (PKI), Active Directory, RSA/Secure ID | Enables enterprise-strength authentication via optional integration with directories (PKI) and leading multi-factor authentication systems. Also includes a secure internal user database for enterprises that have not deployed third-party authentication. | Allows administrators to establish dynamic authentication policies for each user session, based on user/device/network attributes and specific login conditions, including an optional pre-authentication assessment to examine the client’s security state before the login page is presented. |
| Auditing and logging | Full auditing and logging capabilities in a clear, easy-to-understand format. | Simplifies configuration, assessment and troubleshooting. |
| Malware protection | Enables customers to provision endpoint containment capabilities and secure the endpoint either prior to granting access or during the user session. | Provides comprehensive network protection. |
Ease of Use
The SA700 features a user-friendly Web-based interface and streamlined administration making it easy to use and administer.
| Features | Features Description | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Streamlined administration process designed specifically for small/medium enterprises | Instant deployment and activation requires minimal IT knowledge. | Increased productivity for IT resources. |
