Aricent's ASNLite solution, a standards-based, compact, and
off-the-shelf, integrated ASN Gateway, facilitates rapid development
of WiMAX (802.16e) solutions. ASNLite is deployable on COTS-based
Rack Mount Servers form factors (typically 1U and 2U) with
full IP fast path implementation in software over standard
Linux distributions. It is a feature-rich product supporting
Authentication, Handover, Mobile IP, and all other Control
Plane functionalities.
Benefits
Aricent's involvement with the WiMAX Forum ensures that its
ASNLite solution is in accord with the latest advancements
in the WiMAX technology, shielding its customers from added
costs of technology upgrades.
Aricent's comprehensive and easy-to-use solution includes
the IP Fast Path stack functionality for Radius, Dynamic Host
Configuration (DHCP), and Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP), and GRE Tunnel Management and mapping for uplink and
downlink data transfer, as part of the ASNLite Gateway. In
addition, the Aricent solution includes the WiMAX Radio-related
control signaling for Authentication, Handover, Paging Location
Update, and Fast Path control.
WiMAX being an emerging technology, few test tools and simulators
currently exist for it. Aricent, as part of its ASNLite product
portfolio, offers additional enablers, such as a BS signaling
plane simulator for doing quick integration and end-to-end
call scenario execution.
Aricent also provides product development, testing, and integration
services, which facilitate deployment and integration of the
ASNLite Gateway solution, with the Base Stations (BSs) and
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) servers,
catering to customer requirements for interoperability.
