[j-nsp] LAN + Security solution hint

[james list]

Dear experts,

I’d like to have an hint if possible…


For a project I’ve to provide a LAN solution to my customer with a mix of 1
Gbs copper and 10 Gbs copper ports (let say 20 x 1 Gbs and 30 x 10 Gbs
ports) plus a firewalling solution supporting feature like server load
balancing and reverse-proxy.


On the LAN solution I need also to provide the highest level of
redundancy/resiliency, jumbo frames, L2/L3 non-stop switching/routing,
ISSU, scalability both horizontal and vertical.


Could you please help me to identify the best suggested solution ?

1)      For LAN I was thinking to a VC solution, but what box (EX ? QFX?)?
Other option to grant resiliency, NSR/NSB, ISSU, scalability ?

2)      For firewalling I do not think Juniper SRX has a solution, I was
thinking to Fortigate, any experience other suggestion ?

Please advise any pro/cons in my considerations and an help if possible.

Thanks in advance..


Cheers

James
