Cloud Edge Router

Atlas i60

The Atlas i60 is an innovative and revolutionary pro-duct that brings together network transport and business applications into the same dual core hardware platform. It is a high performance enterprise class router and PBX with an integrated standards-based secure application server, thus providing unified management aimed at sim-plifying provisioning and maintenance tasks.

As an application platform the Atlas i60 can act as an office server for files/printers/scanners, IP telephony, domotics management, energy efficiency, LDAP backup, and many other uses. It is based on industry standards so any application based on GNU/Linux can be easily and quickly migrated. Porting applications to the Atlas i60 can reduce costs by eliminating dedicated servers.

As a router the Atlas i60 provides advanced features and routing capacity exceeding 100Mbps, a full network Ope-rating System and many different LAN and WAN con-nectivity capabilities. Network interfaces include native Wi-Fi and Ethernet interfaces and support for VDSL2, ADSL2+, G.SHDSL (2p), 3 serial ports, 2 BRI, 2 SFP, 4 FXS/FXO, 2 E&M, or 4 E1/T1 by using up to two expan-sion slots.

application ScenaRioS video pRoxy

VideoProxy is a live video splitting application. It allows multiple users on the LAN of a branch office to watch a live video stream without con-gesting the WAN, since the video stream is trans-mitted just once on the WAN, instead of multiple times, but duplicated locally to the users on the LAN.Nowadays live video broadcasting technologies for the enterprise and in particular Adobe Flash, use unicast (point-to-point) IP connections to transmit the video stream. Multicast video broad-casting, that would allow natively a single video stream end to end, is not widely used. This is whe-re Teldat solution, based on Atlas i60 router en-ters the scene. As Figure 1 shows, instead of using expensive dedicated external appliances on each remote branch office, that would be the alternative solution to overcome the WAN saturation prob-lem, the Atlas i60 performs the video-splitting technique with the VideoProxy application that runs in the Linux core.

application ScenaRioS webcache

This well-known feature, illustrated in Figure 3, intercepts the Internet traffic that the users on the enterprise branch office LAN are downloa-ding and stores a copy locally, so that the next user requesting the same information will receive it from the locally stored copy, instead of down-loading it from the Internet again. This is a WAN optimization technique that saves bandwidth; the more users access the same information, the more bandwidth it saves.For this reason, this application will be useful for branch offices in which their local users access frequently a common set of information that is able to be cached. For instance, education is a very interesting market, since the students will nor-mally download the same information on a given course: the course materials.

application ScenaRioS SecuRity Suite

The security suite application protects local bran-ch office users against spam emails, i.e. unsolicited, undesired, or illegal email messages, malicious or unauthorized web pages and network intrusion and network attacks.Figure 2 illustrates Atlas i60 security suite applica-tion. A background process runs transparently to the user and intercepts the email traffic, analyzing it for spam or virus. The web traffic is also inspec-ted and the access to remote Internet web servers is controlled. Finally, the intrusion detection sys-tem (IDS) functionality looks for attack patterns in the received traffic, sending appropriate alarms when threats are detected. A daily set of anti-spam, anti-virus, url content filtering and IDS rules can be updated from the cloud-based Services Platform provided by Teldat or directly from free open-source based Internet servers (depending on the type of rules).

application ScenaRioS cloud-SynchRonized naS

Another technique, very interlaced with the cloud computing architecture is the use of local storage at the branch office, but synchronized under certain policies with a centralized cloud-based storage in-frastructure.For small enterprises, just the simple use of a Net-work Attached Storage (NAS), periodically ba-cked up offsite, will probably do. For this market, the Atlas i60 has also a “simple” NAS application that allows the internal hard disk to be shared on the LAN, with capabilities to configure users, permissions and disk quotas to be used, and the possibility of periodic or manual backup in the Services Platform cloud.But bigger or more demanding companies require more advanced features, both on the NAS customi-zation possibilities and on the requirements of the cloud service to be used. Figure 4 illustrates this scenario.

application ScenaRioS diGital SiGnaGe

Digital signage solutions allow for the dynamic display of marketing and sales information on public displays, in places such as financial entities branch offices, kiosks, transportation networks, hospitals, etc. Today’s solutions are very powerful and customizable, but at the expense of a high cost of acquisition, installation and operation. They feature a great deal of options on the multimedia content that they are able to prepare and display. But the reality is that existing solutions are too expensive for the medium/small branch office.

Teldat proposes a low-cost Digital Signage solu-tion as shown in figure 5, with a reduced set of features compared to a dedicated Digital Signage solution, but with enough features for most of the customer scenarios.

application ScenaRioS local RecoRdinG of toip callS

In markets, like insurance or banking, some busi-ness processes involve the recording of voice calls. Tier-1 voice solutions support this feature; usually in a centralized manner and oriented to some ver-tical markets like call centers, IVRs, etc. But call recording on the enterprise branch office is not properly solved in these centralized solutions:

• Internal calls (within the same branch office) are not supported

• It is too expensive or inconvenient to imple-ment, since all voice calls should be routed to the central point, which is too expensive to dimension, hard to provision and adds unnec-essary delays to the voice calls

As an alternative to the use of a dedicated appli-ance, Teldat has developed an application for the local recording of voice calls, as described in Figure 6.
