Firewall / VPN Feature Brief To complement the network deployment modes and ease integration efforts, the Juniper Networks security appliances support both static address assignment, as well as dynamic address assignment through DHCP or PPPoE. This broad-support allows the device to operate in any network environment, including Broadband connections that make use of PPPoE.
Transparent mode allows the Juniper Networks security appliances to be deployed as a Layer 2 security device, providing firewall, VPN, and traffic management functionality, without an IP address, making the device invisible to the user. Transparent mode greatly simplifies the deployment process, making it a convenient means for protecting Web servers, or any other kind of server that mainly receives traffic from untrusted sources. In transparent mode, there is no need to reconfigure the IP settings of routers or protected servers, nor is there a need to create Mapped or Virtual IP addresses for incoming traffic to reach protected servers.
