Traffix Contributes to MultiService Forum (MSF) Testing to Ensure VoLTE Interoperability With DRA Solutions for Roaming and Interconnect Use Cases
Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller (SDC) Supports LTE Deployment
FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP, New Jersey, October 26, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
Traffix Systems, the Diameter control plane
[http://www.traffixsystems.com/sdcoverview.html ] experts, contributed
Diameter routing support with its DRA in the VoLTE (Voice over LTE)
Interoperability Testing event that was organized by the MultiService Forum
(MSF) and backed by the GSMA, the association representing the interests of
mobile operators worldwide. The test event held in September 2011, backed by
the GSMA as part of its VoLTE initiative, focused on validating key network
interfaces to ensure multi-vendor deployment strategies for LTE/EPC/IMS
technology and setting best practices for LTE deployment strategies.
The Traffix expert team demonstrated core Diameter routing, bridging of
Diameter interoperability gaps between vendors, LTE roaming, security and
other interconnect use cases, utilizing dynamic policy control between home
and visited networks employing DRAs (Diameter Routing Agents).
"Traffix participation with its Diameter platform Signaling Delivery
Controller (SDC) succeeded in showing the central role of DRAs in LTE
networks," said Lenny Ridel, CTO of Traffix. "We validated roaming scenarios
as specified by GSMA PRD IR.88 (LTE Roaming Guidelines for VoLTE S6a and S9
interfaces), and the MSF inclusion of DRA technology within a single PLMN.
The SDC also provided protocol normalization for Diameter messages to
support interoperability."
"We're pleased to welcome Traffix to the MultiService Forum," stated
Kyu-Ouk Lee, MSF President. "The knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm that
Traffix brings to the MSF will make a valuable contribution to our ongoing
interoperability program, and we welcome its contribution."
The market leading Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller (SDC)
consolidates Diameter Gateway, Diameter Load Balancer, and Diameter Router
solutions on one unified platform. Traffix will continue to participate in
building and validating practical LTE network use cases in industry forums
for deployment scenarios with the SDC.
About VoLTE IOT Event 2011
The MSF hosted the VoLTE IOT 2011 Event in the Vodafone Centre for Test
and Innovation in Dusseldorf and the China Mobile Research Institute Lab in
Beijing in September 2011. The event is backed by the GSMA following the
launch of its global VoLTE initiative in 2010, which is supported by more
than 40 leading organizations in the mobile market. The event builds on the
major success of the previous Global MSF LTE Interoperability Event that
took place during March 2010 and reflects the industry's drive to continue
to deliver major carrier driven events that benefit all its members in their
quest to keep pace with an ever faster moving industry. The MSF VoLTE
Interoperability test event focused on validating core network interfaces to
ensure multivendor deployment strategies for LTE technology and validated
the MSF physical scenarios developed to incorporate 3GPP LTE/EPC technology
and the GSMA's technical recommendations, focusing on Voice over LTE, with
the support of China Mobile and Vodafone.
