In addition, he said that the Intelligent Services Edge -- available from quarter three of 2009 -would extend the power of JUNOS by adding edge services that include broadband routing, which extends subscriber management technology from the market-leading E-series Broadband Services Routers to the M- and MX-series platforms.

"JUNOS has long been a key differentiator for Juniper, and with the Intelligent Services Edge, we are further extending our leadership by leveraging JUNOS as the foundation for many more advanced edge services such as application awareness, broadband routing, security, voice and multimedia," said Kamal.

"Our customers would continue to benefit from the operational efficiency and simplicity of a single network operating system in additional parts of their network and, together with the Partner Solution Development Platform, can create and deploy a virtually limitless number of services on JUNOS. This would enable service providers to monetize their networks by improving service flexibility and velocity."
