3. Distributed BNG (as shown) Subscriber management in BSA (7450) L2 forwarding with L3 QoS/security Full routing in the BSR (7750) Network architecture for lowest capex Collapses residential, business L2, and business L3 service aggregation on common elements No extra hops or boxes and supports local VOD PIM multicast trees reduced BNG Routed termination Subscriber management and routing in BSR Access nodes terminate into BSRs directly, or via Ethernet Aggr/Packet-Ring (1850TSS) backhaul Layer 3 Business services supported everywhere BSR (7750) also supports L2-VPNs for business Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) as per DSL Forum WT-101 Triple Play Service Delivery Architecture Broadband Service Aggregation Broadband Service Router PublicInternet Subscriber Broadband Access Node BTV ADSL2+ VDSL2 GPON IP Backbone . . .

7. IP Quality of Service • What do we mean by IP Quality of Service? • Quality - Meeting the customers expectation • Manage services at the IP layer • Individual IP flows • Multiservice IP networks • Network Design plays a key role • Network Dimensioning • Coping with bursty nature of IP flows • IP classifcation and differentiation of different service types • Video, VoIP, High Speed Internet • Service and Network Availability • Network resiliency • High Service Availability in the Network Equipment HSI - High Speed Internet • This QoS Enabled IP Network is not the Internet

9. Leveraging the QoS Evolution for Improved High Speed Internet Services • Classification utilizes the QoS Infrastructure • Increasing classification intelligence through application awareness • Utilizing an integrated network level QoS Solution • Triple Play is Driving a QoS-based InfrastructureWe can leverage this Infrastructure for HSI Service Value

10. Beyond Triple Play – Adding Value to Internet • For the Service Provider • Tiered HSI Revenue Opportunities to increase ARPU • Gaming, Peer-to-peer, URL filtering, iVoIP, iVideo • Fairness: Align usage of HSI network resources with revenue on a per subscriber basis • Enable an IASP “eco-system” to enable competing IASPs to differentiate themselves • For the C/ASP • Differentiate your offering by improving your customers’ HSI experience • For the Subscriber • Gain a better HSI experience • Pay only for the value that you need

11. Neutrality, Fairness and Service Improvement • Net Neutrality (FCC August 2005 Principles) • Access the internet content of choice • Run applications and use services of choice • Connect their choice of devices that do no harm • Enjoy competition among service, application and content providers • Fairness • Ensure best-effort network resources are allocated in a just and equitable fashion • Service Improvement • Enables subscribers and content/application providers to improve their experiences over the public internet • Service Expansion Delivers a Better Internet ExperienceEnsures Fairness and Maintains the Principles of Neutrality

12. Triple Play Networks • QoS Enabled IP Networks • Basis for Triple Play Networks • Underlying IP Infrastructure for IMS • Architecture determined by IP Video needs • Common architectures • Different Implementations • Remaining challenges • Wholesaling models • Beyond ULL • Bit stream access • Net Neutrality • Requires creative and close co-operation between service providers, equipment vendors and regulators

14. High Availability for Residential & Business Services Spoke SDP to 7750 means Fast reroute to a routed interface instead of slower VRRP failover Single-homed DSLAM with LAG Sub-50ms Fast Reroute • Hot-Standby IP edge router redundancy with IPoE/DHCP • Rapid restoration with VPLS and sub-50ms fast-reroute, no spanning tree • DHCP state persistence in 7450 and 7750 for all lease-related state • Link redundancy options with 802.3ad link aggregation and active/standby options • High-availability with non-stop routing/non-stop service 7750 7450 7450 VPLS 7450 7750 Policy VRRP provides service-aware choice of master gateway router. IPoE and VRRP provide hot standby reslience. Non-stop routing Non-stop service means node stays up Non-stop routing Non-stop service means node stays up Dual-homed customer
