Allot Subscriber Management Platform (SMP)

Subscriber Management Platform (SMP) datasheet. This document introduces Allot Service Enablement, which helps service providers deliver personalized and profitable network services while maintaining control over costs. With features like flexible service tiering, powerful policy control, and real-time charging, Allot SMP enables service providers to personalize service offerings and maximize service revenues. The platform also extends per-user management to large enterprises, providing critical connectivity services to employees.

Allot SMP helps service providers deliver personalized and profitable network services in several ways: 1. **QoE Congestion Management**: Allot SMP provides real-time control over network congestion and its impact on Quality of Experience (QoE), allowing service providers to maximize the QoE delivered at any given moment by adjusting and re-allocating bandwidth to applications and users connected to affected network locations . 2. **Monetize with Value-based Policy Control and Charging**: Allot SmartPCC, integrated within Allot SMP, enables real-time, pay-for-use charging based on the consumption of data and applications per volume and time. It supports innovative charging models that reflect the true value of services to subscribers and content providers, thus contributing to service profitability . 3. **Personalized Service Plans**: Allot SmartPCC allows for the creation of tiered and quota services, enabling the deployment of competitive, application-aware service plans with different Quality of Service (QoS) policies and Service-Level Agreements (SLA). This allows consumers to choose the Internet experience that best suits their lifestyle and budget, while operators maintain control over network use . 4. **Virtualized Subscriber Management**: Allot SMP is available as a virtual appliance running on Openstack and VMware environments, providing flexibility and scalability for service providers to optimize their resources according to Allot SMP requirements . These features and capabilities empower service providers to tailor services to individual subscribers, implement innovative charging models, and manage network resources effectively, ultimately leading to personalized and profitable network services.
The benefits of using Allot SMP for service providers and large enterprises include: 1. **Visibility**: Allot SMP provides dynamic correlation of IP addresses to assigned subscribers, allowing accurate monitoring, analysis, and metering of subscriber data services over multiple concurrent access types. It supports both IPv4, IPv6, and hybrid networks and can correlate multiple IP addresses per subscriber as needed . 2. **Policy Control and Charging**: Allot SMP employs standard 3GPP interfaces, enabling seamless operation in mobile and converged broadband networks as an intelligent Policy Control and Enforcement Function (PCEF) and/or Traffic Detection Function (TDF) nodes. It integrates with operator Policy and Charging Rule Function (PCRF), and Online and Offline Charging Systems (OCS/OFCS) . 3. **Service Tiering and Quota Management**: Allot SMP can be configured to provide a standalone Policy Control and Enforcement solution with a rich service creation framework that facilitates the rapid deployment of tiered service plans based on personal Quality of Service (QoS) parameters, usage quotas, and overage policies that enforce how each subscriber’s traffic is treated. It also supports interfaces for integrating with existing non-3GPP based OSS/BSS functions . 4. **Real-time Metering**: Allot SMP enables real-time volume and time metering per session, with the option to exclude or "zero-rate" individual or groups of applications so they are tracked but not charged. Operators may also assign specific rates to specific applications and provision one or more of these individually rated applications in a subscriber’s service plan . 5. **Virtualized Environment Support**: Allot SMP is available as a virtual appliance running on Openstack and VMware environments, providing flexibility and scalability for service providers and large enterprises to optimize their resources according to Allot SMP requirements . These benefits collectively empower service providers and large enterprises to gain visibility, exercise policy control, manage service tiering and quotas, enable real-time metering, and leverage virtualized environments for efficient subscriber management and service delivery.
Allot SMP supports both IPv4, IPv6, and hybrid networks for subscriber management through its dynamic correlation of IP addresses to assigned subscribers. This capability allows service providers and large enterprises to accurately monitor, analyze, and meter subscriber data services over multiple concurrent access types. Allot SMP can correlate multiple IP addresses per subscriber as needed, providing flexibility and adaptability in managing diverse network environments . This support for IPv4, IPv6, and hybrid networks ensures that Allot SMP can effectively cater to the evolving network infrastructure and address the requirements of modern subscriber management across different IP protocols.
