Documentation

The E-Series Installation Quick Start poster is shipped in the box with all new routers. This poster provides the basic procedures to help you get the router up and running quickly.

With each software release, we provide the E-Series Routers Documentation CD (formerly ERX Edge Routers Documentation CD). The documentation CD contains the document set in PDF format and HTML format (with and without frames). From the HTML files, you can also access PDF files of individual chapters and appendixes.

The documentation is also available on the Web. You can order a set of printed documents from your Juniper Networks sales representative.

The document set comprises the following books:

ERX-710, ERX-310 specifications

Juniper Networks has long been a significant name in the networking sphere, and the ERX series, particularly the ERX-310 and ERX-710, highlights the company's commitment to providing robust, high-performance edge routing solutions. These routers are designed for service providers needing to support a wide array of services, including broadband, voice, and video over IP.

The Juniper ERX-310 is a compact and versatile access router suitable for small to medium-sized service providers. It features scalable architecture that can grow with the operator's needs. With its support for integrated T1/E1 interfaces, the ERX-310 allows seamless deployment of broadband services while providing QoS mechanisms to prioritize traffic effectively. Its modular design includes slots for additional interfaces, ensuring flexibility in deployment scenarios. The device is capable of processing millions of packets per second, thanks to its advanced forwarding architecture.

On the other hand, the ERX-710 is a more powerful option, targeting larger enterprises and service providers. This router also comes with modular capabilities, supporting various interface options and enabling efficient traffic management across multiple services. The ERX-710 supports advanced routing protocols, including BGP, OSPF, and IS-IS, ensuring reliable and efficient routing of IP packets across complex networks. With its ability to support a higher capacity of subscribers and concurrent sessions, the ERX-710 is designed to meet the increasing demands of modern broadband services.

Both routers come with robust security features, including access control lists (ACLs), firewalls, and the option for IPsec VPNs, ensuring that data integrity and confidentiality are maintained. Multicast support is another critical feature that enhances the ERX series' ability to deliver rich content services efficiently.

Furthermore, both models utilize Juniper's Chassis-based architecture, which allows operators to start small and scale up as needed without complete equipment overhauls. This architecture is complemented by Juniper's JUNOS operating system, renowned for its reliability and powerful network management capabilities, providing users with enhanced visibility into network operations.

In summary, Juniper Networks' ERX-310 and ERX-710 routers exemplify the company's innovation in network router technology, catering to different operational scales while ensuring efficiency, flexibility, and robust performance across diverse service environments. Their rich feature sets and adherence to industry standards make them suitable choices for service providers striving to deliver high-quality service in an increasingly data-driven world.
