Broadforward this week announced that its Diameter Signaling Controller (DSC) and Diameter Firewall (DFW) are now in full operation at several locations within the MobiFone mobile network.
MobiFone is a major Vietnamese mobile network operator with close to 50 million subscribers.
The BroadForward DSC and DFW were deployed by the leading Vietnamese technology provider and integrator QD.TEK. The Next Generation DSC provides MobiFone with the ability to integrate and apply intelligent Diameter signaling scenarios.
The DFW enables MobiFone to block unwanted signaling messages as per relevant GSMA FS.19 recommendations. After assessing multiple Diameter router vendors, MobiFone selected QD.TEK to deploy the BroadForward DSC to replace the existing Diameter routers.
The BroadForward Next Generation DSC (DRA, DEA and Interworking) provides MobiFone with an easy to configure, multi-protocol routing and interworking software solution, designed to orchestrate converged signaling services across 2G/3G, 4G/LTE, Fixed/Wi-Fi networks and ultimately 5G.
Tran Viet Ha – Deputy Director, Network Development at MobiFone
This Next Generation DSC and DFW solution offers much more flexibility compared to traditional signaling products, allowing us to independently configure signaling services across our networks and services and easily adapt to vendor-specific protocol implementations.
Nguyen Cao Phuong, Director Project Business at QD.TEK
MobiFone is a highly knowledgeable customer who were looking for a future proof Routing and security solution that offers unrivalled flexibility to integrate and configure.
