Multi-mode Small Cells (3G/LTE/WiFi)
Non-3GPP Access
Use commonly deployed WiFi
access points to offload traffic to
the Internet.
Architecture standardized by
3GPP so inter-access mobility is
covered.

Diameter Routing Agent - DRA
DRA ensures:
all Diameter sessions established for a given EPS connection
reach the same PCRF when multiple and separately addressable
PCRFs have been deployed in a Diameter realm
A DRA can also incorporate SLF functionality to locate HSS for a
IMS UE when multiple HSSs are deployed.

Poll Question #2
32
What is a Software Defined Network?
Promotes innovation
Separation of function allows both network element hardware
and switch management suite vendors to break into the market
34
Challenges in growing SDN into
Carrier Networks
Topology Management
Most of todays SDN management s/w deals well with flat full
mesh network infrastructures not dynamic hierarchies.
Policy Policing
How to control how much network resources a management
agent can reserve?
Security
How to prevent the creation of illicit portals?
How can a network entity spot a rogue rule?
Traffic Management
While good at creating traffic flow classification rules not so
good at defining traffic scheduling characteristics
35
Opportunities
36
Basic Model of a Network Appliance
State Machine
User Application
API Add new entry by default
Application adds or wait for application Buffered
table entry & rule Packets
Apply Rule
e.g. put into correct
priority queue
