Juniper JN0-335 Practice Test Questions Answers

The Junos IPS feature is a security service that is integrated on SRX Series devices, which are high-performance network security platforms that offer firewall, VPN, IPS, application security, and unified threat management capabilities. The Junos IPS feature uses various methods to detect and prevent intrusions, such as signature-based detection, protocol anomaly detection, behavioral anomaly detection, and custom signatures. Signature-based detection compares network traffic against predefined patterns of known attacks and blocks traffic when a match is found. Protocol anomaly detection monitors network traffic for deviations from the expected or normal behavior of common protocols, such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and DNS, and blocks traffic when an anomaly is detected. Behavioral anomaly detection monitors network traffic forchanges in the baseline behavior of hosts, networks, or applications, and blocks traffic when a significant deviation is detected. Custom signatures allow administrators to create their own patterns of attacks based on specific criteria, such as IP addresses, ports, protocols, or payload content, and block traffic when a match is found. The Junos IPS feature does not use sandboxing to detect unknown attacks, as this is a function of the Juniper ATP Cloud service, which is a cloud-based service that provides advanced malware detection and prevention for the network. The Junos IPS feature is not a standalone platform, but rather a service that runs on SRX Series devices, which can be deployed as physical or virtual appliances. References:

SRX chassis clustering is a high availability feature that allows two SRX Series devices to operate as a single logical device. The two devices are connected by a control link and a fabric link, which are used to synchronize the configuration, state, and traffic between the nodes. The control plane is responsible for managing the cluster configuration, monitoring the health and status of the nodes, and performing failover operations. The data plane is responsible for processing and forwarding the traffic through the cluster. SRX chassis clustering supports two modes for the data plane: active/passive and active/active. In active/passive mode, only one node is active for each redundancy group, which is a logical grouping of interfaces and services. The active node handles all the traffic for the redundancy group, while the passive node acts as a backup. In active/active mode, both nodes are active for different redundancy groups, and they can share the traffic load for the cluster. SRX chassis clustering supports only one mode for the control plane: active/passive. In this mode, only one node is the primary node, which is the master of the cluster configuration and the source of truth for the cluster state. The primary node also initiates the failover process in case of a node or interface failure. The other node is the secondary node, which is the slave of the cluster configuration and the backup of the cluster state. The secondary node takes over the primary role if the primary node fails or is manually disabled. References: Chassis Cluster Overview, SRX Series Chassis Cluster Configuration Overview, Chassis Cluster Overview

 Juniper Secure Analytics (JSA) is a security information and event management (SIEM) system that consolidates, analyzes, and manages surveillance data from network devices, endpoints, and applications1

JSA uses two features to configure alerts based on certain criteria: building blocks and events2

Building blocks are reusable components that define common characteristics of network activity, such as IP addresses, ports, protocols, usernames, or threat categories. Building blocks can be used to create custom rules, searches, reports, and filters that can trigger alerts when certain conditions are met2

Events are records of network activity that are collected and normalized by JSA. Events can be classified into different categories, such as offenses, flows, logs, or anomalies. Events can also be correlated with other data sources, such as vulnerability scanners, threat intelligence feeds, or asset databases, to provide more context and insight. Events can trigger alerts when they match predefined or custom rules that specify the severity, frequency, or duration of the activity2

Chassis clustering is a high availability feature that allows two SRX Series devices to operate as a single logical device. The two devices are connected by a control link and a fabric link, which are used to synchronize the configuration, state, and traffic between the nodes. The cluster nodes are identified in the following ways:

A cluster is identified by a cluster ID (cluster-id) specified as a number 1 through 151.

A cluster node is identified by a node ID (node) specified as a number from 0 to 11.

Therefore, the node ID is used to identify each device in the chassis cluster (option B), and the cluster ID is used to identify each device in the chassis cluster (option D). The node ID value does not range from 1 to 255 (option A), and a system reboot is notrequired to activate changes to the cluster (option C)2. References: Chassis Cluster Overview, Configuring Chassis Clustering on SRX Series Devices
