TeamF1 Unveils Advanced CPE Features
for its Turnkey Solutions
Additions
to TeamF1’s rich technology platform include TR-069 agent
module, sophisticated QoS, run-time feature enablement and
service-provider co-branding capabilities.
FREMONT, Calif.— May 28, 2008 – TeamF1,
Inc. (www.TeamF1.com),
the leader in embedded networking and security software,
today announced the availability of advanced features in its
software platform, enabling comprehensive solutions for
service providers’ customer premise equipment (CPE)
gateways. These features include a TR-069 component library,
network stack enhancements for end-to-end QoS, advanced
service provider controls, and the ability to provision
value-added services over the network. Also included in the
latest TeamF1 Platform are branding, usability and automated
maintenance features specifically targeted to CPE gateways
meant to be deployed by broadband, optical and wireless
service providers.
TR-069, an implementation of the DSL Forum’s CPE Wan
Management Protocol, standardizes remote management of CPE
devices for residential and business use and is becoming a
powerful and in many cases, mandatory mechanism to control
devices beyond the gateway itself. Automatic provisioning
and remote control made possible by the TR-069 protocol
allows service providers more control over complex
management of CPE devices.
TeamF1’s TR-069 agent leverages the company’s
standards-based implementation of protocols such as HTTP,
XML/SOAP, and SSL/TLS. It is highly customizable and
eliminates service provider “truck rolls” with its remote
diagnosis and performance monitoring capabilities. It also
supports mechanisms such as “notify” and “inform”, enabling
the CPE device to actively notify the service providers’
Auto Configuration Servers (ACS) of changes in system
parameters.
TR-069’s remote management is complemented by features such
as an extensive framework for hierarchical management of
configuration settings locally on the device, the ability to
easily co-brand OEM device software for different service
providers, and the ability to customize device functionality
for various target markets without firmware changes.
Expanded support for field debugging and “phone-home” style
capabilities also reduce costs for OEMs and service
providers alike, and advanced QoS modules in the network
stack enable new revenue sources via value-added offerings
that utilize bandwidth effectively. These features also work
cohesively with TeamF1’s existing Ethernet switching and
routing protocols to enable OEMs to bring to market CPE
devices that require zero to minimal end-user configuration.
“We are very pleased to continue adding to our networking
and security technology portfolio that all of our turnkey
solutions can build on.” said Mukesh Lulla, president of
TeamF1. “Solutions such as our Secure Gateway Solution, an
advanced VPN/Firewall gateway software package, and Managed
Access Point Solution, as well as other upcoming solution
offerings can now leverage the CPE features we have added to
our platform and enable OEMs to bring to market advanced,
service-provider managed devices cost-effectively and
quickly.”
TeamF1 offers its purpose-built firmware solutions based on
the components in its embedded platform, licensed in binary
or source code form, to meet specific target market
requirements. The modular nature of the TeamF1 Platform
makes it easily possible to add the new CPE features to any
target turnkey solution in minimal time. Residential, SMB
and enterprise class wired and wireless devices can all
leverage the new features available for integration in
TeamF1’s turnkey solutions.
Availability
The new CPE software modules, including the complete TR-069
agent implementation and other advanced features, are
immediately available as add-ons to TeamF1’s Managed Access
Point and Secure Gateway Solutions, comprehensive turnkey
software packages that combine rich sets of field-proven,
standard components with an array of customizable options.
