IPBNG: High-Performance Broadband Network Gateway
The IPBNG (Broadband Network Gateway) is a sophisticated, high-capacity system built on the battle-tested IPACCT traffic management engine. It is specifically engineered to handle the massive traffic demands and complex routing requirements of modern, large-scale broadband networks.
Why Choose IPBNG?
- Carrier-Grade Performance : Optimized with advanced algorithms to handle massive subscriber traffic over PPPoE and IPoE, delivering low latency, stable sessions, and consistent QoS even during peak hours.
- Seamless Scalability : The modular BNG architecture—covering authentication, IP assignment, routing, traffic management, and policy control—scales smoothly from small setups to large multi-pop ISP networks without redesign.
- Maximum Reliability : Native support for BGP, LACP, and RADIUS redundancy ensures continuous connectivity, while resilient IPDR data export and policy enforcement keep services stable during hardware or link failures.
- Dual-Stack Future Proofing : Full IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack support for PPPoE users allows gradual migration to IPv6 while maintaining compatibility with existing IPv4 subscribers and upstream internet routers.
- Flexible Integration : Standards-based interfaces and comprehensive APIs make it easy to integrate the BNG with billing, monitoring, logging, and external orchestration platforms for centralized control.
- End-to-End Visibility : Integrated IPDR logging and policy enforcement provide deep visibility into subscriber activity, enabling accurate reporting, lawful traceability, and usage-based analytics.
- Advanced Traffic Management : Built-in shaping, prioritization, and QoS policies ensure business-critical and latency-sensitive applications receive guaranteed performance across the access network.
- Robust Security Controls : Centralized authentication, per-subscriber policies, and controlled routing paths help protect the network from misuse, rogue access, and unauthorized traffic.
- Simplified Operations : A clear breakdown of functions—auth-n, IP assignment, routing, traffic management, and policy enforcement—reduces operational complexity and speeds up troubleshooting.
Core Features
- Comprehensive Authentication : Supports a wide array of protocols including PPPoE (PAP/CHAP), IPoE (Packet Triggered), and Web Login/Hotspot portal authentication via RADIUS.
- Dynamic Traffic Control : Real-time CoA (Change of Authorization) support allows for dynamic bandwidth changes and service updates without disconnecting the user.
- Advanced IP Management : Handles complex IP assignment and routing, providing a secure bridge between the subscriber and the service provider core.
- Full RADIUS Accounting : Provides detailed, real-time AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) to ensure accurate billing and usage tracking.
- Compliance Ready : Integrated with comprehensive IPDR data logging to meet all mandatory regulatory and security requirements.
- Redundancy & High Availability : Supports BNG redundancy protocols to eliminate single points of failure, keeping your broadband services running 24/7.
Key Benefits
- IPv4/IPv6 Dual Stack Full compatibility with modern and legacy web standards.
- Dynamic CoA Update user plans and speeds on-the-fly without resets.
- BGP & LACP Support Professional-grade routing and link aggregation.
- Modular Architecture Easy deployment into existing multi-vendor environments.
