Understanding Logical Systems for SRX Series Firewalls

Logical systems for SRX Series Firewalls enable you to partition a single device into secure contexts. Each logical system has its own discrete administrative domain, logical interfaces, routing instances, security firewall and other security features. By transforming an SRX Series Firewall into a multitenant logical systems device, you can give various departments, organizations, customers, and partners–depending on your environment–private use of portions of its resources and a private view of the device. Using logical systems, you can share system and underlying physical machine resources among discrete user logical systems and the primary logical system. The logical systems feature runs with the Junos operating system (Junos OS) on SRX1400, SRX3400, SRX3600, SRX5600, and SRX5800 devices.
