Kheradpir's resignation comes a year after he
was hired from Barclays Plc <BARC.L> to head the company.
His appointment indicated Juniper's focus on software-based
networking and services, a technology that allows users to
substitute some of the most complex hardware functions in server
switches with software.
The review will not impact the company's finances, Juniper added
in its statement on Monday.
The company named Rami Rahim, a 17-year Juniper veteran, as
Kheradpir's replacement.
Rahim has served as executive vice president and general manager
for development and innovation.
The company was not immediately available for comment, while
Kheradpir could not be immediately reached.
Shares of the company fell 1.5 percent in after market trading.
