High-performance policy enforcement in mobile networks

In the era of unlimited usage plans, mobile operators often face increasing data traffic caused by bandwidth consumption due to video streaming. Network congestion is the result of constantly growing data volume. There is no end in sight to that growth. Mobile operators need to react quickly to satisfy subscriber's bandwidth hunger and offer them consistent quality of service (QoS) based on applications. Subscribers expect their mobile Internet access to be the same as their residential Internet. With new applications constantly adding to the traffic mix, operators still face a considerable proportion of unknown network traffic.

The ipoque policy enforcement solution PRX G-Series provides mobile operators the most effective way to control their network and implement customer-oriented billing models.

Application Scenarios

The above-mentioned challenges, especially the increasing data traffic in mobile networks require new ideas when it comes to traffic management and sophisticated technology. ipoque offers with PRX G-Series a tailored solution for policy enforcement.

Subscriber policy enforcement is an essential part of today's networks. As the subscribers become more demanding when it comes to expecting guaranteed quality of services, mobile operators must cope with those expectations or risk losing customers to the competition. Traffic optimization with policy rules per subscriber and per application-layer protocol or protocol group is a simple solution for these challenges. Bandwidth limitations and bandwidth guarantees improve the quality of experience for customers.

Comprehensive subscriber usage data helps operators keep track of their activities. Information like new subscriber activity or prolonged subscriber inactivity help operators to better plan their resources and create tailored service plans. Constant network monitoring provides visualization of what is happening in your network.

With the PRX G-Series selected IP traffic can be redirected to a value-added service platform. It provides real-time data to accounting, charging and billing systems. This data can be used for policy decisions, quota management, billing and usage reporting.
