Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

JUNOS firmware is the first routing operating system designed specifically for the Internet. It runs on all Juniper Networks T-series, M-series, and Jseries routers, and is currently deployed in the largest and fastest growing networks worldwide. Its full suite of industrial strength routing protocols, flexible policy language, and leading MPLS implementation efficiently scale to large numbers of network interfaces and routes. As well, JUNOS firmware supports the industry's first production-ready GMPLS implementation.
