To do more with your broadband network you need to see more. Imagine being able to view network activity down to the granular level, in real time.

If you could see which device and application an individual subscriber is using, and

where they’re using it, your whole perspective changes. And so does your business.

Procera gives you that view. Our PacketLogic® Intelligent Policy Enforcement (IPE)

solutions give you the awareness and insight—from the granular to the global—

to deliver highly personalized services and achieve new levels of network control

and efficiency.

Behind our IPE platform is an equally innovative vision of the possibilities for

broadband services. Procera isn’t just formulating a unique view of tomorrow’s

opportunities—we’re creating them, starting with the solutions you see here.

Start seeing and doing more, with Procera.

Used by leading broadband service providers around the world, PacketLogic® Intelligent Policy Enforcement (IPE) solutions provide:

7 Awareness of individual subscribers and their service plan, network usage, devices,

location, application types, and more

7 Control of bandwidth and traffic with real-time policy enforcement to optimize utiliza-

tion and Quality of Service (QoS)

7 Analysis of network activity, in real time and historically, to dramatically improve your

understanding of trends for enhanced business planning

7 Monetization by enabling innovative, personalized services and data plans

Powered by industry-leading Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology, our flexible

PacketLogic® IPE systems provide the network Awareness, Analysis and Control to

enable powerful, new network management capabilities and differentiated services.

Procera offers proven solutions for the following:

OTT (over-the-top) Video

Meet the challenge of OTT video usage and manage network capacity intelligently. Our IPE solution enables operators to identify and analyze OTT video usage down to the subscriber level. Policy-based traffic management, where permitted, prioritizes service provider offerings while enforcing a basic QoS level for OTT traffic.

Intelligent Service Charging

Deploy personalized services that offer consumers value-based, predictable pricing. Our IPE solution enforces charging plans for individual subscribers—including tiered plans and zero-rating—in real time, enabling personalized plans based on application categories, individual applications, or even specific content or websites.

VoIP

Achieve an accurate picture of “over the top” (OTT) VoIP traffic in your broadband network. Our IPE solution lets you identify which subscribers and groups are using third-party VoIP services, providing intelligent traffic management with policy-based enforcement of rules for each traffic type.

Tiered Data Service Plans

Deliver data service plans to match different subscriber usage patterns, while enhancing network revenues. Our IPE solution applies user-aware policies to allocate bandwidth intelligently, enabling data plans to meet personalized needs—from a premium “streaming media” plan to low-cost “email and web” or “Facebook for free” plans.

Revenue Assurance

Analyze data flow accurately and quickly to identify and minimize revenue “leakage.” Our IPE solution tracks network usage in granular detail to identify over-billed, under-billed, non-billed, and unauthorized activity. Real-time and historical analytics provide the insight needed to quickly resolve issues and spot critical trends.

Business Model and Network Analytics

Achieve granular insight into broadband network usage for better business planning. Our IPE solution enables operators to view and analyze network activity down to application, device, location, and subscriber level. It provides a real-time snapshot of network traffic and con-sumption, and historical analytics to drive development of new, differentiated services and plans.

Subscriber Portals

Get subscribers’ attention to notify them of new services, changes to their services, or when they approach data plan limits. Our IPE solution identifies individual subscribers when they connect to the network, redirecting them to a dedicated online portal for notifica-tion or to present them with upgrade options based on their data plan.

Network Usage Management

Monitor and manage bandwidth intelligently to ensure high Quality of Experience (QoE) for all subscribers. Our IPE solution tracks usage patterns in detail, identifying subscribers, applications, devices, and times associated with high bandwidth consumption. Then it applies volume-based shaping to manage traffic peaks and optimize bandwidth availability for subscribers.

Peering Management

Monitor large volumes of network traffic, including asymmetric data flows, to detect unauthorized traffic in real time. Our IPE solution monitors traffic in a granular way to pinpoint and block unauthorized network uplinks, and to manage traffic—including shaping traffic—to protect QoS for authorized traffic.

Threat Management

Detect and mitigate network threats quickly, before they impact QoS. Our IPE solution monitors network traffic in a granular way to pinpoint potential malware, viruses and other threats. It alerts threat mitigation systems proactively and blocks suspect traffic, quarantining devices or subscribers exhibiting prohibited behavior.

Carrier-grade NAT

Implement Carrier-grade Network Address Translation (CGN) without compromising subscriber stability, performance or scalability. Our IPE solution provides subscriber- and application-aware traffic steering, diverting traffic to the appropriate service appliance. Service chains can support multiple services, supporting sophisticated services that require multiple traffic steering decisions.

Advanced Traffic Steering

Redirect service-related traffic in a selective, intelligent way to better manage band-width and application performance. Our IPE solution provides subscriber- and application-aware traffic steering, diverting traffic to the appropriate service appliance. Service chains can support multiple services, supporting sophisticated services that require multiple traffic steering decisions.

Data Plan Usage Management

Control bandwidth usage, while providing “maxed out” subscribers with some basic level of service. Our IPE solution tracks individual subscriber usage against their data plan, managing bandwidth in real time. This enables operators to deliver innovative service plans offering subscribers greater flexibility in managing their applications and usage.

Network Congestion Management

Effectively manage network congestion at peak times to deliver a high Quality of Experience (QoE). Our IPE solution provides intelligent traffic management, prioritizing managed services, real-time and mission-critical traffic during peak periods with policy-based enforcement of traffic rules for each traffic type, in accordance with QoS and service plan levels for each subscriber class.
