  1. WELCOME

  2. MSF: An Overview • International forum of global carriers, equipment vendors, high-tech companies • Define end-to-end service and system specifications for global networks • Showcase interoperability via GMI (Global MSF Interoperability) demonstrations

  3. MSF Membership—2004

  4. GMI2004 Sponsors

  5. IP Gains; Obstacles Remain • Is IP ready for prime time? • Promise of new services, new revenue streams • Massive investments in initiatives and equipment • IP obstacles • Unsophisticated Quality of Service (QoS) • Inadequate, inconsistent security • No end-to-end management • Inconsistent value-added experience

  6. MSF: The Value-Add • Encourage a diverse community to work together productively • Identify and supply missing pieces in emerging telecom standards • Implement IAs for critical capabilities • Quality of Service (QoS) • Security • Multivendor value-added services

  7. MSF: The Value-Add (con’t) • Enable global carriers to implement IP networks and services—profitably • Help global carriers extend the life of legacy investments • Publicly validate commercial viability of next-gen networks—using real carriers, real products, and real connections • Move industry closer to convergence

  8. Everybody wins… • Global carriers gain new, revenue-generating IP services • Companies gain advanced IP services to streamline business • Consumers gain advanced IP services that make their lives simpler

  9. A Framework for Collaboration

  10. Conceptual Considerations

  11. Validating Interoperability • GMI validations are among the most ambitious in the world •  GMI2002 • 2 weeks of 24/7 networked testing • 3 sites on 3 continents • Validates Release 1 of MSF architectural framework •  Now, the MSF has completed GMI2004…

  12. GMI2004 Raises the Bar • Builds on success of GMI2002 • “Layers” on new functionality • QoS • IPv6 • Value-added services • Security • Validates Release 2 of MSF framework

  13. The GMI2004 Challenge • Two weeks of 24/7 testing • Three continents • Four countries • Five progressive test scenarios • Dozens of test engineers • Hundreds of networked devices • Core/edge routers, bandwidth managers, call servers, application servers…

  14. GMI2004: 29 Participants *

  15. The GMI2004 Testbed

  16. Scenario 1

  17. Scenario 2

  18. Scenario 3

  19. Scenario 4

  20. Scenario 5

  21. Value-Added Services • GMI2004 demonstrates that properly engineered IPv4/IPv6 packet networks can deliver a range of value-added services: • IP conferencing • Originating/terminating screening • Click to connect/conference • Emergency connection/call report • Continuous retry • Number translation • Voicemail media processing • Video telephony

  22. Value-Added Architecture

  23. The QoS Conundrum • Carriers want to migrate to packet networks • Call quality must be guaranteed • Emergency calls must be given priority • Network overload/packet discards must be avoided • Delay-sensitive voice can’t wait for network to reroute around congestion

  24. The MSF’s QoS Architecture

  25. QoS: The MSF Way • Two QoS mechanisms • MPLS traffic engineering • DiffServ traffic engineering • Guaranteed capacity for specific call volume • Bandwidth managers prevent overloads • Call servers recognize priority calls

  26. Participants in GMI2004… • Showcased their success deploying a global multiservice, multivendor network • Extended their reach into new markets • Built close relationships with peers, customers, and suppliers

  27. Participants in GMI2004… (con’t.) • Proved their commitment to building best-of-breed products • Earned a high-profile position in the move to IP-based global networks
