About the Juniper SSG 5 Secure Services Gateway (Small Business)

Supporting up to 8,000 maximum concurrent sessions with 1,600 new sessions per second, the Juniper SSG 5 Secure Services Gateway (Small Business) delivers the session handling capacity required for sustained high-traffic security deployments. Built on Juniper ScreenOS, the SSG-5-SB combines robust firewall throughput with flexible VPN capabilities to protect growing business networks without sacrificing performance or administrative control.

Network engineers and IT procurement teams selecting a compact yet capable security appliance will find the SSG-5-SB well-suited to branch offices, remote sites, and small-to-medium business environments. The device offers 160 Mbps firewall throughput and IPSec VPN throughput of 40 Mbps (3DES/AES), allowing encrypted site-to-site connections across up to 25 VPN tunnels using policy-based and route-based architectures with support for IKEv1, 3DES, AES, MD5, and SHA-1. Comprehensive UTM features—including antivirus powered by Kaspersky engine, anti-spam, web filtering, and intrusion detection and prevention (IDP)—integrate directly into the appliance, reducing reliance on external security infrastructure. The gateway supports multiple configurable security zones (Trust, Untrust, DMZ) and up to 100 security policies, enabling granular traffic control. Routing flexibility includes static routing, RIP v1/v2, OSPF, BGP, and multicast support for seamless integration into complex enterprise networks. The desktop form factor houses 7 x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN interfaces (configurable), 1 x 10/100 Mbps WAN interface, 1 x RJ-45 serial console port, and 1 x USB port for external storage and boot operations. License-based UTM features support unrestricted user counts, scaling with your security investment.
