Unified Access Control Design and Implementation Guide for Security Devices

Junos OS for SRX Series Services Gateways, Release 12.1X47

In Junos OS Release 12.1 and later, user role firewall security policies let you classify traffic based on the roles to which a user is assigned. Based on match criteria, which includes the user’s role, you create policies to apply services that allow or block access to resources. The user role firewall is similar to the identity-based network access control (NAC) solution available with UAC on the SRX Series device. A user role firewall, however, does not require the Junos Pulse/Odyssey installation, and it supports agentless transparent authentication.

User role information can be collected in several ways: locally on the SRX Series device, from a Junos Pulse Access Control Service device, or by relaying authentication data from a third-party authentication server through a Junos Pulse Access Control Service device to the SRX Series device.
