Traffix Diameter Gateway - Technology
Traffix Diameter Gateway is an important part of the Diameter control plane architecture. This technology is essential in supporting the introduction of Diameter based network elements into the telecom network.
Upon receipt of an incoming transaction, usually some kind of an AAA request, Traffix Diameter Gateway analyzes the received data, transforms it to the destination protocol form and forwards the request outward to the final destination. Upon receipt of an answer, Traffix Diameter Gateway transforms it back to the originating protocol form and sends it outwards the request originator. The entire transformation and mapping process is executed with high accuracy and minimal processing delay, maintaining negligible latency even at significant loads.
Traffix Diameter Gateway is offered in several load configurations across several standard Telco-grade platforms. Traffix Diameter Gateway can handle up to 20,000 Transactions per Second (TPS). Larger capacity options are also enabled by utilizing scalable hardware configuration.
Diameter Protocol Interfaces Supported
Traffix Diameter Gateway supports all Diameter Protocol interfaces as defined by the various standard bodies. Traffix Diameter Gateway supports both the mandatory and the optional parts of the Diameter protocol. It offers a full Diameter functionality and supports the entire set of Diameter protocol interfaces such as Rf, Ro, CC, Sh, Cx, Gy, Gz, Rx, Zh and Gx. More Info on Diameter Interfaces
Simple Legacy to NGN Connection
Traffix Diameter Gateway enables to connect and align telecom services and functionalities across legacy protocols such as RADIUS, LDAP, HTTP, CAMEL, JMS, Web-Services, XML and Diameter control plane protocol domains. Traffix Diameter Gateway utilizes an existing service infrastructure, and enables unified subscriber management, services and billing functionalities.
True Cross Network Control and Singling
Traffix Diameter Gateway enables operators to achieve cross network control plane and signaling connectivity. Traffix Diameter Gateway aligns signaling connectivity between different technologies and standard interfaces, and brings together Mobile, WiMax; Wi-Fi and Wireline networks control handling.
Multi Vendor Environment
Traffix Diameter Gateway allows network architects to choose the optimal equipment and services from various vendors, without worrying about control plane integration and signaling issues.
