Product Description

Juniper DX3680-SLB-SSL-S-4G       Juniper Load Balancer

The DX application acceleration platform resides in the data center

in front of content servers, where it serves as a full request/responseaware

bi-directional HTTP proxy for processing incoming and

outgoing requests. By offloading servers from CPU-intensive tasks,

the DX platform makes servers much more efficient, accelerating

the performance of web-enabled applications and improving the

productivity of remote, branch office and mobile employees accessing

centralized business applications.

Server Load Balancing

As a fundamental service, the DX platform delivers full Layer 4-7 server

load balancer (SLB) functionality.

Equipped with multiple load-balancing methods and sticky modes, the

DX platform can load-balance any application that needs to be scaled or

made highly available. The DX platform performs server health checks

ranging from simple ICMP ping and Layer 7 HTTP content validation

to scriptable health-check facilities to verify that applications, whether

custom or off the shelf, are healthy before any requests are sent to

the server. Full server/connection management features ensures that

servers and services can be inserted or deactivated at any time in a live

network without causing a service outage.
