Services Processing Card SRX5K-SPC-2-10-40 Specifications
The SRX5K-SPC-2-10-40 Services Processing Card (SPC) contains two Services Processing Units (SPUs),
which provide the processing power to run integrated services such as firewall, IPsec, and IDP (see
Figure 2 on page
9). All traffic traversing the firewall is passed to an SPU to have services processing
applied to it. Traffic is intelligently distributed by I/O cards (IOCs) to SPUs for services processing.
The firewall must have at least one SPC installed. You can install additional SPCs to increase services
processing capacity.
You can install SPCs in any of the slots that are not reserved for Switch Control Boards (SCBs). If a slot is
not occupied by a card, you must install a blank panel to shield the empty slot and to allow cooling air to
circulate properly through the device.
Figure 2 on page 9
shows a typical SPC supported on the firewall.
