Performance, Flexibility, Scalability
Growing smartphone and mobile application use is driving a tremendous increase in the amount of signaling traffic traversing radio access and core networks. High signaling traffic loads and unexpected spikes will impact multiple interfaces in 3G and LTE networks, potentially overloading network elements to the point of causing large-scale outages.
The current surge in signaling traffic is being driven by:
• Smartphones generating up to twenty times the control-plane traffic generated by ordinary phones
• Unexpected spikes caused by poorly configured over-the-top applications, malicious hackers, and localized outages
• New revenue-generating services from mobile operators requiring increased interaction with charging and policy functions
Signaling involves the underlying communications that enable user authentication and authorization, mobility, charging, and billing, and policy management. To prevent unexpected, even debilitating surges from occurring, Ixia’s X100 and X800 appliances provide a high-scale platform for testing 3G and 4G wireless network elements.
The X100 and X800 platforms feature a compact, 2U, small-footprint design, and are the premier solution for testing signaling and the control-plane interfaces of network elements that process huge volumes of mission critical control plane traffic—like subscriber databases, management entities, and controllers.
