Network Management

The following Junos Space Management Application can easily be added and managed from the Junos Space Network Management Platform:

Junos Space Network Director
Simplifies network operations by unifying wired and wireless management for complete life-cycle of management of campus and data center networks from a single pane of glass.

Junos Space Network Director provides a single pane of glass view into both the wired and wireless networks, and creates a holistic, full lifecycle management solution for the network. Junos Space Network Director delivers:

Critical elements of advanced management applications by providing operational efficiency, expedited error free service roll-out, enhanced visibility and fast troubleshooting.
Operational efficiency by employing a correlated view of various networks elements. It offers a holistic view of every aspect of network operation to remove the need for disjointed applications throughout the lifecycle of the network.
Faster roll-out and activation of services while protecting against configuration errors with profile-based configuration and configuration pre-validation.
Single pane of glass management that provides a unified view of the network infrastructure including a correlated view of overlay services and user experience on top of network infrastructure. Junos Space Network Director also tracks aggregated utilization, network hotspots, failures, correlated RF data and usage to a user level providing deep visibility and easy troubleshooting of connectivity, equipment and general failures.
Junos Space Security Director
Helps organizations improve the reach, ease, and accuracy of security policy administration with a scalable, GUI based management application.

As one of the Junos Space Management Applications, Junos Space Security Director* helps organizations improve the reach, ease, and accuracy, of security policy administration with a scalable, GUI-based management tool. It automates security provisioning through one centralized web-based interface to help administrators manage all phases of security policy lifecycle more quickly and intuitively, from policy creation to remediation:

Scale security policy across multiple Juniper Networks SRX Series Services Gateways, or manage multiple LSYS instances on a single SRX Series device.
Centrally configure and manage application security (e.g., AppSecure), firewall, VPN, IPS, and NAT security policy through one scalable management interface.
Define and enforce policies for controlling usage of specific applications such as Facebook, instant messaging, and embedded social networking widgets through included AppFW management.
Reuse security policies within Junos Space Security Director for improved security enforcement accuracy, consistency, and compliance.
Build the infrastructure for further management innovation across the network through open and secure Junos Space Network Management Platform integration.

*NOTE: Junos Space Security Director was previously called Junos Space Security Design.
Juniper Space Services Activation Director

Ensures error-free service provisioning and monitoring of legacy Carrier-Ethernet and MPLS using a simple interface to design, validate and manage these services.
