AdvOSS Service Management AAA Server --> AAA Applications

AAA Applications: Each AAA request is handled by a respective AAA Application that interfaces with different functions in core network over multiple interfaces.

AdvOSS Service Management Policy Server

0 AdvOSS Policy Server is required by any service provider who has complex service management needs and have to make policy driven decisions based on business rules to realize those needs. AdvOSS Policy Server enables a service provider to create policies and define their business rules for any business process e.g. Routing, Charging, Resources allocation and others. It specially realizes the PCRF (Policy Charging Rules Function) as defined in the PCC framework of 3GPP for next generation networks like LTE, IMS, Wi-Max and other 4G technologies

AdvOSS Service Management Policy Server --> Key Modules

0 Policy server provides the core rule based engine and request zoning modules that combine with HSS and AAA applications to provide a powerful policy framework that is fully compliant with the PCRF framework defined by 3GPP for policy and charging control.

AdvOSS Service Management Policy Server – Business Use cases

Some important use cases are highlighted below

Access Aware Policy Restrictions : based on Type of access (HFC, Wi-Max, Wi-Fi)

Speed and QoS control based on periodically consumed data volume limits

Fair Usage based Bandwidth Throttling

Night unlimited and other time of day based plans

Pay As You Go models

Bandwidth on Demand: Subscriber initiated Turbo Boost

AdvOSS Service Management HSS (Home Subscriber Server)

0 AdvOSS HSS is required by any communications service providers such as Telecoms, wired and wireless broadband providers in 3G, 4G, LTE or other technologies as the centralized data repository. It stores subscribers identities and subscription data about all subscribers and their service offerings. It is also required to keep track of service add-ons and their subscriptions by individual subscribers. It serves service profiles to Application servers or policy enforcement points.
