Enabling All-IP flat architecture

!  Massive increase of Throughput, Signaling and Density

!  Need for an architecture that optimizes the investments, taking into account

Cost of transmission / routing Location of the Peering points Scalability of the EPC platforms themselves

!  Flat IP architecture opens new possibility for network deployment. - Centralized versus Distributed

!  True LTE subscriber profile is unknown today, Service mix is also to be confirmed

!  Holistic view must include all technologies (E.g. including WiFi, Femto, etc.)

!  Re-architecting the network today to prepare LTE is a “leap of faith”

!  Purpose designed not an adapted product Call Servers: Designed for handling “high” processing

Routers: Designed for handling high bandwidth

Bladed architectures: Limited set of functions, scalability

!  Harvests & applies all system resources to optimize performance & maximize capital efficiency

Processes distributed across the entire system

CPU resources are automatically adapted to meet needs

Single software image

•  Simple, Elastic, scalability -  Just one type of cards, no specific functional cards

-  Linear scalability – all network functions & services scale with addition of single type of card

-  Within the card, processing power elastically allocated between Signalling, Throughput, services

-  Multiple collocated functions, single platform to manage, capacity elastically allocated among the different functions

-  Single platform to manage, easy to maintain

PSC/DPC The only card needed for services and for expansion

!  Single pool of CPU resources Drastically simplifies the planning effort. Throughput Vs Signaling flexibility:

During the day (ToD) As users behaviour evolves As new applications are launched As terminals behaviour evolves During unusual conditions

!  Cisco EPC as a Control Point to manage signaling storms !  CPU gets automatically fully allocated to signaling during signaling

storms !  ASR5k typically never goes to overload during signalling storms !  Surrounding boxes may be impacted

!  Cisco EPC supports Throttling, thus becoming the control point to manage a signaling storm
