Virtual Network Infrastructure Validation
Cloud Peak
-
Network functions virtualization (NFV) is a key building block for 5G mobile networks, with network slicing or mobile edge computing (MEC) becoming possible. In the NFV architecture, various virtual network functions (VNF) run on a common NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) and are controlled by a common management and orchestration (MANO) layer.

Virtual SBC
-
What is a virtual session border controller or virtualized SBC? Traditionally, a session border controller (SBC) is a device positioned between carrier networks or between an enterprise LAN and a service-provider WAN. In the latter case, the border controller is called an enterprise session border controller or eSBC. Whether it is delivered as a dedicated hardware session border controller or a virtualized network function, (a.k.a. software SBC) the border controller manages call (session) setup and teardown. The SBC also provides network demarcation (demarc), or separation (border) between network domains, as well as other types of management (control) over the data streams that pass between networks. With the growing popularity of software defined networking (SDN) and the burgeoning market development and adoption of network function virtualization (NFV), eSBC functionality is more and more often de-coupled from a dedicated hardware device and delivered as a virtual instance running as a virtual machine (VM) on top of a hypervisor. It is generally not well understood in the market why an eSBC is such a critical network element for a secure and reliable SIP-based enterprise phone system. The following publication will help close that knowledge gap.

Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Network
NFV and SDN
-
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is a concept closely-related to software defined networking (SDN) whereby certain aspects of network operations (routing for example) are de-coupled from hardware and delivered as a software-only product or service. The software solutions sometimes called Virtual Machine (VM) Software Editions. Network operators, service providers, and enterprise network administrators can employ Virtualized Network Functions (VNF) to accelerate deployment of network services, cut capital expenses and reduce operating costs.

At-Speed Non-Intrusive Functional Testing
ScanExpress JET
-
Functional circuit board testing presents many challenges that are often costly and time consuming. Most functional tests need to be customized for each design, limiting reusability. This results in software engineers vying for time between development code and test code. Even when functional tests become available, the diagnostic details are often inadequate to give clear visibility on a given problem.ScanExpress JET is a tool designed to overcome these challenges by automating the functional test generation process on CPU–based IEEE-1149.1 compliant circuit boards. Coined JTAG Embedded Test, JET is the preferred method for at-speed, non-intrusive functional testing.
