In order to provide customers with more open, hardware vendor-agnostic methods for conducting intelligent traffic monitoring across various 5G network applications, including voice, video, data, mission critical services, IoT, and enterprise and industrial applications, Spirent Communications and Aviz Networks announced a collaboration to further strengthen the Networking 3.0 Stack.
With the help of open-source large language models (LLMs) and Aviz Network Copilot, the industry-leading AI management assistant for big telecom and corporate networks, the networking 3.0 stack’s AI enablement opens up hitherto undiscovered application cases.
In contrast to the more conventional packaged and expensive proprietary service nodes, Aviz Service Nodes adopt a different strategy. Aviz Service Nodes operate on widely accessible general-purpose hardware, setting them apart from conventional solutions. They are also designed to smoothly interact with existing packet broker networks.
This guarantees that future network improvements won’t be constrained by proprietary solutions and gets rid of the need for vendor-specific hardware, which is a significant cost factor.
Aviz is now able to offer Telco clients an inventive, quality-assured, ready-to-deploy solution for increased network efficiency and cost savings by integrating Spirent Landslide to verify Aviz Service Nodes.
“Our solution is designed for AI-powered data-driven networking for 5G deployments and we estimate that customers can achieve a staggering 50% reduction in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) through this software-defined approach,” said Vishal Shukla, Founder and CEO at Aviz Networks. “Thanks to our new collaboration, Aviz Service Nodes, combined with the unmatched testing capabilities of Spirent Landslide, represents a significant milestone in our commitment to Telco success with our AI-enabled Networking 3.0 Stack.”
Spirent Landslide, known as the most extensive test platform in the business for service provider network optimization and validation, validates Aviz Service Nodes. This potent combo gives Telcos the ability to:
Gain deeper insights: Aviz Service Nodes provide comprehensive metadata extraction and advanced correlation analysis by leveraging Landslide’s advanced, state machine-driven implementation of 3GPP standards, along with its compatibility with release 17 based 5G nodes and interfaces.
The platform’s flexibility to customize call flows, messages, and information elements is instrumental in generating call models that mimic the real world at unprecedented scale to rigorously test performance through LLM-based AI models.
Optimize deployments: In the dynamic landscape of 5G network deployment, which encompasses diverse setups like Standalone (SA), Non-Standalone (NSA), and Private 5G that are tailored to address fundamental elements of 5G design and architecture, the support for real-world Busy Hour Call Attempts (BHCA) models becomes indispensable.
With 5G deployments being platform-independent, testing must be platform-agnostic. Spirent Landslide’s line-rate scaling capacity, and ability to replicate real-world deployments through its Real-World Call model, ensures maximum efficiency and service quality.
“Partnering with Aviz Networks represents an important step to further enhance network testing, while demonstrating Landslide’s capabilities to seamlessly integrate with Aviz’s Networking 3.0 framework,” said Kishore Kumar, 5G Business Development, APAC South at Spirent Communications. “This integration ushers in a new era of intelligent traffic monitoring and AI-driven network optimization, enhancing the capabilities of both solutions and setting a new standard for open, scalable, and efficient 5G network applications.”
