Juniper SRX Integrated Firewall overview

Today i am writing an article on Juniper SRX Firewall. In the Juniper portfolio we have two kinds of firewalls, one is Hardware based firewall( same as Cisco Firepower ) and other is Virtual Firewalls ( which is vSRX. Juniper vSRX offers features that are available on physical SRX Series devices. You can deliver a complete and integrated virtual security solution that includes core firewall, robust networking, full next-gen capabilities, and automated life cycle management. 

 As per the Juniper,the industry’s fastest virtual firewall, vSRX offers speeds up to 17 Gbps using only 2 vCPUs to provide scalable, secure protection across private, public, and hybrid cloud environments. So i will talk about the Physical and Virtual Firewalls here in this article.
