Produkt overview
The Juniper Networks SSG-20-SH is a robust Security Services Gateway designed for network security and connectivity. This modular platform delivers 160 Mbps of stateful firewall traffic and 40 Mbps of IPSec VPN throughput, making it suitable for securing network communications. The SSG 20 is equipped with five on-board 10/100 interfaces and features two I/O expansion slots, supporting various I/O cards such as ADSL2+, T1, E1, ISDN BRI S/T, and V.92 for versatile WAN connectivity options.
Opsætningsinstruktioner
Follow these steps to set up your Juniper Networks SSG-20-SH Security Services Gateway:
- Udpakning og inspektion: Carefully remove the device from its packaging. Inspect the gateway for any visible damage. Ensure all components listed in the packing list are present.
- Fysisk placering: Place the SSG-20-SH on a stable, flat surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure adequate space around the device for proper airflow to prevent overheating.
- Strømtilslutning: Connect the provided power adapter to the device's power input port and then to a suitable electrical outlet. The power LED (labeled "POWER" on the front panel) should illuminate.
- Netværksforbindelser:
- Connect your local network devices (computers, switches) to the 10/100 Ethernet interfaces (labeled "FE" or similar) on the front panel.
- For WAN connectivity, utilize the appropriate I/O expansion slots for ADSL2+, T1, E1, ISDN BRI S/T, or V.92 cards as needed. Connect your internet service provider's line to the corresponding port on the installed I/O card.
- The "AUX" and "CONSOLE" ports are typically used for management and initial configuration via a serial connection.
- Indledende konfiguration: Refer to the separate configuration guide for detailed instructions on initial network settings, firewall rules, and VPN setup. This typically involves accessing the device via the console port or a default IP address.

Betjening af enheden
Once the SSG-20-SH is physically connected and initially configured, it operates as a central point for network security and traffic management. Key operational aspects include:
- Firewall beskyttelse: The device actively inspects network traffic, applying configured security policies to allow or deny connections based on rules. This stateful firewall capability ensures secure communication.
- VPN Services: The SSG-20-SH supports IPSec VPNs, enabling secure, encrypted tunnels for remote access or site-to-site connectivity. This is crucial for protecting sensitive data transmitted over public networks.
- Network Address Translation (NAT): It performs NAT to allow multiple devices on a private network to share a single public IP address, conserving IP addresses and adding a layer of security.
- Rute: The gateway functions as a router, directing network traffic between different interfaces and networks based on configured routing tables.
- Overvågningsstatus: Observe the front panel LEDs for operational status:
- MAGT: Indicates power supply status.
- STATUS: General device status.
- SYNC (for ADSL/V.92 modules): Indicates synchronization status of the WAN connection.
- TX/RX (for ADSL/V.92 modules): Indicates data transmission and reception activity.
- CD (for V.92 module): Indicates Carrier Detect for dial-up connections.
Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures the optimal performance and longevity of your SSG-20-SH:
- Firmwareopdateringer: Tjek regelmæssigt Juniper Networks support website for the latest firmware updates. Applying updates can improve performance, add new features, and address security vulnerabilities.
- Fysisk rengøring: Keep the device free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior. Ensure ventilation openings are not blocked.
- Sikkerhedskopiering af konfiguration: Regularly back up your device configuration. This allows for quick restoration in case of accidental changes or system issues.
- Miljøforhold: Ensure the device operates within recommended temperature and humidity ranges to prevent hardware failure.
Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your SSG-20-SH, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Ingen strøm / Strøm-LED slukket | Power cable disconnected, faulty power adapter, or power outlet issue. | Check power cable connections. Test the power adapter with another device or try a different outlet. |
| No Network Connectivity | Incorrect cable connection, misconfigured network settings, or firewall blocking traffic. | Verify Ethernet cable connections. Check IP address, subnet mask, and gateway settings. Review firewall policies to ensure they allow necessary traffic. |
| VPN Connection Fails | Incorrect VPN configuration, network issues, or incompatible settings. | Double-check VPN parameters (IP addresses, shared keys, encryption settings). Ensure network paths are clear. Consult VPN logs for specific error messages. |
| Langsom ydeevne | High network traffic, outdated firmware, or resource contention. | Monitor network usage. Update firmware to the latest version. Optimize firewall rules and VPN settings. |
| ADSL/V.92 Module SYNC LED Off | No signal from ISP, faulty cable, or module issue. | Verify the line connection from the ISP. Check the cable for damage. Contact your ISP to confirm line status. |
For more advanced troubleshooting, refer to the comprehensive documentation available on the Juniper Networks support portal or contact technical support.
