This page provides a list of organisations providing OSM compatible Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). Click on the logos for additional details.




Anritsu.png Space.png The Anritsu MasterClaw vProbe is a cloud-ready network monitoring solution enabling network operators to optimize and troubleshoot their virtualized networks. The Anritsu vProbe is an integral part of the MasterClaw Customer Experience Assurance solution and it can be seamlessly integrated with existing MasterClaw installations, giving a single, simplified and effective way to troubleshoot hybrid networks (physical and/or deployed in NFV environments). Deployed as a VNF on top of different Cloud Management Systems the Anritsu MasterClaw vProbe can be orchestrated by virtually any MANO solution, including OSM, and is compatible with multiple Openstack based VIMs. It can monitor the Control Plane and User-Plane of various virtual networks topologies such as virtual-VoLTE, virtual-VoWIFI, vEPC and vIMS. High performance is achieved by leveraging packet processing optimization technologies which help reduce the overhead introduced by the hypervisor layer and eliminate the need for purpose built hardware.





Athonet.jpg Space.png Athonet provides a complete software-based mobile packet core solution for centralised or highly distributed edge-cloud deployments in Enterprise & Industrial LTE, CBRS, Challenger Telcos, Tier 1 Operators, Governments and Public Safety or mission critical applications. Our full solution (vEPC/vPC) includes a Home Subscriber Server (vHSS), Home Location Register (vHLR), Voice-over-LTE (vIMS for VoLTE), LTE Broadcast (eMBMS), supports NB-IoT and MC-PTT. It is one of the industry's most efficient mobile core solutions that can be deployed in fully virtualised environments, enterprise data centres or on standard off-the-shelf servers.





Indra.png Space.png Indra iAAA is a Radius and Diameter engine designed to be used as a 3GPP AAA server or PCRF server in convergent broadband telco networks. Designed for the performance and manageability required by tier-1 operators, it supports auto-scaling and configuration based on open APIs. The virtual edition, ready to deploy in OSM Rel FOUR, is a complex VNF comprising a scaling group with multiple worker servers, a balancer to expose a single point of usage, an in-memory session database, and a configuration server. A single VNF may scale to hundreds of thousands of requests per second. It implements, among others, 3GPP SWx, SWm, Gx and Sy interfaces off-the-shelf. In addition, custom behaviors may be easily implemented when needed using standard Javascript.





OAI logo.jpg Space.png The OpenAirInterface Software Alliance (OSA) is a non-profit consortium fostering a community for open source software and hardware development for the core network (EPC), access network and user equipment. The OpenAirInterface EPC VNF, OAI vEPC, provides individual sub-blocks of the LTE EPC core and full interoperability not only with other VNFs but also other software components such as VIM and orchestration. Being open source, the OAI EPC gives a great degree of flexibility and interoperability options that the community can leverage. In the context of the 3rd ETSI NFV Plugtests in May-June 2018 we demonstrated the OAI EPC components interoperability in NFV/SDN based Telco Cloud infrastructures and use cases.





Sandvine.png Space.png PacketLogic/V platform components run as individual Virtual Network Function Components (VNFC) that are part of an ETSI-defined Virtual Network Function (VNF) environment that a network operator would need to support a PacketLogic analytics or enforcement solution. Supported capabilities include:
  • Complete PacketLogic product line support to enable collapsed deployments and efficient use of off-the-shelf hardware.
  • Flexible network deployment supporting full migration capabilities to add services wherever needed without pre-installation of PacketLogic-specific hardware platforms.
  • Analytics and enforcement capabilities sized for customer needs with easy upgrades from 1Mbps to over 150Gbps of network traffic throughput
  • Multiple solutions can be deployed delivering the features required for specific services.
  • Designed for tight integration with NFV products based on the ETSI NFV architectural framework and ONF SDN standards.
