VBNG-EVO | Virtualized Broadband Network Gateway - vBNG Evo

Through a unique, container-based design that disaggregates network functions, streamlines packet flows, and enables independent and dynamic scaling of control and data planes, the vBNG delivers superior throughput and resiliency in both centralized and distributed architectures.

Benefits

• Centralized / Distributed Data Planes with Automatic Scaling
  • The vBNG Router offers separation of control and data planes and is designed for geographic redundancy and multi-dimensional scaling so service providers have assurance, service agility, and faster time to market.
• Disaggregation of Network Functions
  • Not only are control and data planes separated, but these functions run on commercial, off-the-shelf hardware with standard NICs and optics. CommScope provides a complete solution ensuring freedom from lock-ins without compromising scale, performance, and resiliency.
• Industry Leading Throughput
  • Deliver high throughput performance with HQoS and Accounting enabled per session, dynamically scalable to terabits per second.
• Advanced Subscriber Management
  • Advanced Subscriber Management features including per subscriber Hierarchical QoS and policy-based routing.
• Wireless Application Gateway (WAG) support
  • Support for Captive Portal for subscriber authentication, SoftGRE and L2TP tunnel support allowing layer-2 transparent data placed between the subscriber and the vBNG
• Carrier Grade NAT (CGNAT)
  • Support for line rate NAT, including deterministic NAT, across very large numbers of subscribers, reducing IPv4 address costs, while providing privacy protection for local subscribers
