I know from the short time I worked for a Juniper reseller, the Juniper IPS
has a separate box [very small] that does like a HA link to the IPS, so if
the IPS fails, the traffic routed straight throught the network with no IPS

Subject: IPS Reliability/Availability
I am working on a big IPS project and I am very concerned about installing
an inline device in a core enterprise network, where these devices have the
potential to create big time network outages.
Can you, please, share your possible bad experiences about the reliability
of the following inline IPS products:
ISS
TippingPoint
Juniper IPS
Sourcefire
McAfee IntruShield
Have you had any issues with the availability of these devices, such as fail
close crashes or do you have any experience with bypass switches that would
mitigate the availability issue?
Thanks,
Mike
