Latest-generation software enhances quality of service and
significantly increases IP address capacity MILPITAS, Calif., Sept.
7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LSI Corporation (NYSE: LSI) today
announced immediate availability of LSI(TM) Broadband Access
Software Release 8.1 for the family of LSI APP communications
processors. The new software supports the IPv6 protocol, including
enhanced security and quality of service (QoS) management
capabilities that are crucial to the effective delivery of services
over IPv6, in addition to supporting IPv4 video, voice and data
services. Today's traffic management schemes must be able to
prioritize network services so that network providers can deploy
tiered customer services with multiple quality and price levels.
LSI Broadband Access 8.1 enables tiered services in IPv6 networks
by providing network managers with service-aware management tools
such as subscriber flow isolation and dynamic priority
modification. The software also provides sophisticated
bandwidth-capping algorithms that optimize bandwidth allocation and
reduce the need for constant capacity upgrades. "The rapid growth
of tiered services is driving the need for service-aware features
that are easy to deploy," said Bob Wheeler, senior analyst, The
Linley Group. "The new version of LSI Broadband Access software
provides next-generation service-aware features for IPv6 now, which
will enable OEMs to deliver IPv6 broadband access-ready systems in
2010." The continued expansion of wireless and wireline Internet
usage is being driven in part by the deployment of innovative,
tiered services that require higher levels of QoS, service
configurability, data security and mobile application support. LSI
Broadband Access software enables a new generation of
service-aware, tiered subscription plans in IPv6 broadband access
networks. Using programmable hardware schedulers in the LSI APP
communications processor and its own hierarchical scheduling
algorithms, the software enables network traffic to be dynamically
shaped for specific services and subscribers. "Our new software
enables service providers to deploy the tiered services they
require and increase IP address capacity immediately," said Sindhu
Xirasagar, product line manager, Networking Components Division,
LSI. "In addition, it provides our OEMs with a common,
full-featured platform for the development of highly intelligent,
highly configurable, next-generation services." LSI Broadband
Access software is currently deployed in DSLAM, MSAN and PON MDU
systems around the world, enabling several million VDSL2, ADSL2 and
GPON/EPON ports. It uses a single API for the complete suite of LSI
APP3300 and APP300 devices and is configurable with any brand of
customer premise equipment, so OEMs can leverage a single
application across a broad system portfolio. The result is a
solution that can deliver cost-optimized, any-to-any networks over
a wide range of performance levels. LSI Broadband Access 8.1
software is available now. LSI will showcase its next-generation,
any-to-any multi-service networking platforms at Broadband World
Forum, September 7-9, 2009, in the Hilton Paris La Defense Hotel,
located in the CNIT Convention Centre. For details, please visit:
