14 DAY TRIAL // Nokia is introducing a network solution that lets operators control the use of network resources by bandwidth hungry applications such as file sharing and Voice over IP telephony - giving operators the tools to maintain better control over their networks. This will seriously help mobile operators better manage their data traffic.
The Nokia Peer-to-peer Traffic Control is the industry's first integrated solution to allow mobile operators to profitably manage the bandwidth available for peer-to-peer (P2P) traffic, and thus balance the allocation of network resources. The centralized solution is implemented as a software upgrade to the Nokia Flexi Intelligent Service Node (ISN) and will be commercially available during the first half of 2007.
The Nokia Peer-to-peer Traffic Control solution enhances the service, subscriber, and access awareness capabilities of the Nokia Flexi ISN to identify data traffic according to the type of service, for example file sharing, so that operators can treat that traffic in a way that best optimizes the use of network resources according to the operators' business strategy.
Nokia will be demonstrating the Peer-to-peer Traffic Control solution at Nokia World, which takes place in Amsterdam on November 29th and 30th.
