The full-featured, carrier-grade vMX extends more than 20 years of Juniper edge routing expertise to the virtual realm. The vMX Virtual Router runs the Junos operating system and compiles the programmable Trio chipset microcode for x86 chipsets, which maintains complete feature and operational consistency with physical MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers.
The vMX provides sophisticated routing services that support business and broadband services, route reflection, and customer premises equipment (CPE) applications. Optional virtualized services for the vMX significantly expand its application range.
The vMX is available as licensed software for x86-based servers, on AWS and AWS GovCloud (U.S.), as well as on Microsoft Azure. With its flexible deployment models and granular, perpetual, and subscription-based licensing options, the vMX allows you to start small, move fast, and stay profitable.
