Thanks for the comment.

It seems no one has ever had a good experience with this company.

As of today we still have no update on when the machine will be back.

I just hope that more people read this page and don't purchase a warranty from this company.

Sounds like you are one of the lucky ones at this stage. Our computer first made connections with U-nited Stuff ups, or warranties to some, in October last year and here we are in March. This machine is about to go back for the fourth time in the next couple of days. Has not worked once in the three returns had so far. We are furious. Every time they get it they hold it for weeks on end and if you ring no-one ever seems to know anything. My daughter has not had it to complete end of year uni exams last year and now still does not have access to a computer or the internet to begin assignments this year. It is grossly cruel to us. When you ring up they NEVER NEVER EVER answer their phone before at least 10 minutes has passed and because many of these calls we have had to make using a mobile phone it has cost us a fortune n phone calls alone. What can we do? We are furious at being taken for a huge ride here. Will NEVER NEVER NEVER have anything to do with this company ever again. How they stay in business I will never know. Absolutely diplorable service. I wish you better luck!

Hi Dan,

Yes the SRXs seem better. You must run at least JunOS 10.4.

Thanks,
Michael.

Comment by pafkata on Cisco ASA 5505 vs Juniper SSG 5

To nhk,

SRX240 has not many switching features compared to any switch, since it is aimed to be a security services router in main use. ALso SRX devices have much more routing features, than any SSG before plus some layer features. Fro example you will have stp, rstp, mstp, you will have 802.1X, you will have GARP, LAG, Multicast and even bridge domains. and Q-in-Q on ports configured for ethernet switching. In QinQ you will have All-in-one bundling only for SRX devices. Anyway SRX cannot be compared to cisco layer switch in any way, maybe to some cisco firewalls, but having vpls on SRX with no additional cost , I don't think cisco firewalls can compare something that, maybe some cisco routers, but then the flow routing is absent there, so basically Juniper took his own way to build a good devices for modern networks and still do not push any proprietary technology inside, which I like the most.
Take a look here for Layer 2 features on SRX240:
