VPN Tunnel SRX5308 <-> FSV338
Will it be possible to establish a site to site IPSec VPN tunnel between an FSV338 and a SRX5308? I currently have a pair of FSV338 doing site to site but want to replace one with an SRX5308...without fussing and having to jump through all sorts of hoops! i don't really need 4 WAN ports and I thought of using an FVS318G or FVS336G but quite frankly in view of the large number of complaints and negative opinions with these 2 products I just don't want to deal with unecessary headaches caused by buggy firmware or flaky hardware.

Hello John-1,
Welcome to the community!
A site-to-site tunnel between the FVS338 and the SRX5308 should work just fine. You can basically just use the VPN wizard to configure it, just make sure you are entering the correct IP/DNS addresses and keys on both ends. Sorry to hear about the issues with the FVS318G and the FVS336G but rest assured that our engineers are working hard to fix any issues that have been reported.
Let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks,
