Traffix Contributes to MultiService Forum (MSF) to Ensure VoLTE Interoperability with DRA Solutions!

Traffix Systems, the Diameter control plane experts, contributed Diameter router support with its DRA in the VoLTE (Voice over LTE) Interoperability Testing event in September 2011 that was organized by the MultiService Forum (MSF) and backed by the GSMA, the association representing the interests of mobile operators worldwide.

Traffix Team Achievements:
The Traffix expert team demonstrated their high abilities with the Diameter router, bridging of Diameter interoperability gaps between vendors, LTE roaming, security and other interconnect use cases, utilizing dynamic policy control between home and visited networks employing DRAs (Diameter Routing Agents).

From the Traffix CTO: Lenny Ridel
“Traffix's participation with its Diameter platform Signaling Delivery Controller (SDC) succeeded in showing the central role of DRAs in LTE networks,” said Lenny Ridel, CTO of Traffix. “We validated roaming scenarios as specified by GSMA PRD IR.88 (LTE Roaming Guidelines for VoLTE S6a and S9 interfaces), and the MSF inclusion of DRA technology within a single PLMN. The SDC also provided protocol normalization for Diameter router messages to support interoperability.”

The VoLTE IOT Event 2011
The MSF hosted the VoLTE IOT 2011 Event in the Vodafone Centre for Test and Innovation in Dusseldorf and the China Mobile Research Institute Lab in Beijing in September 2011. The MSF VoLTE Interoperability test event focused on validating core network interfaces to ensure multivendor deployment strategies for LTE technology and validated the MSF physical scenarios. Traffix was a key player at the event with its Diameter router solutions.
