Juniper gains corporate network ground

Jim Duffy writes in NetworkWorld:

Juniper last week offered up fresh evidence that its enterprise networks strategy is working, as it posted third-quarter financial results that included security-product sales growth nearly double that of competitors over the past year.

The company made a determined effort to enter the enterprise market about 18 months ago, with the $4 billion acquisition of leading firewall and VPN vendor NetScreen. Juniper's move perplexed the industry at the time, because CEO Scott Kriens pledged in 2002 not to compete with the company's core service provider customers by also selling routers and other products into the enterprise.
