Elitecore
Technologies, the global provider of Wi-Fi Service Management Platform (SMP)
which enables Mobile Data Offload solution makes a strong bid to the carrier
WiFi market by introducing enhanced features in existing modules of its
converged Wi-Fi SMP which will help operators deploy customer-centric
next-generation services in a heterogeneous 4G-LTE network
while accelerating time-to-market for innovative plans. The solution would be
showcased at the forthcoming MWC Show in Barcelona this year.
The
upgraded features include Evolved AAA which addresses authentication
challenges of subscribers in LTE supporting DIAMETER-based EAP authentication
along with RADIUS based authentication for RADIUS supportive networks like
Wi-Fi. Designed with an advanced scripting capability, the Evolved AAA helps
efficient communication on LTE network to quickly deliver customization and
solve interoperability challenges.
Says
Dhaval Vora, VP, Product Management, “In order to roll out services
simultaneously across LTE, 3G and Wi-Fi, operators face challenges in
maintaining IP session continuity for users when changing the network access
mode. Our new features like Evolved AAA and LTE Wi-Fi interworking have been
designed for service continuity and efficient data offload.”
Furthermore,
the Evolved AAA feature supports LTE Wi-Fi interworking by providing the Wx
interface support for HSS authentication over LTE network for additional
Authentication parameters based on subscriber profile, authorization
information update, ePDG initiated session termination and S2b interface
support towards PGW.
