  2. Agenda • Overview of Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) • ZTP in PANS • Issues with ZTP in BAN • Possible ZTP solutions for BAN • Deployment Example

  3. What is Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) Theory • Automated subscriber and service provisioning system (SSPS) • Subscribers and services are created with the bare minimum human intervention Practice • Largely automated SSPS with human intervention required • Full automation is can be • Uneconomical • Insecure

  4. ZTP in Dial-Up over Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) • ZTP for Dial-Up access has existed for a number of years • Pre-paid • Subscription • It is rather easy to implement as there is no requirement to configure NEs Credit Check Subscription Web Billing System RADIUS

  5. Issues with ZTP on DSL (PANS) • Subscriber line patching and qualification between MDF and DSLAM is largely a manual process • DSLAM and ATM (if present) may need to be provisioned for each subscriber • Subscriber self installation not always successful • Truck rolls are a necessity for installations where • New copper runs are required • POTS splitter installation • CPE installation failure

  6. Implementing ZTP on BAN OSS Subscription L2 NMS • Receive subscription • Enable layer 1/2 access • Enable layer 3 service • Gather accounting data • Monitor and bill service L1 NMS Service Activation Server RADIUS ATMTDM IP Core ATMTDM IP Edge

  7. Opportunities in BAN • Ability to provide more than 1 service • Opportunity to up sell additional services • Broader revenue streams • Examples: • 128 / 256 / 512 / 1024 kbps Internet services • Multimedia on Demand • Application on Demand • VoIP, Video conferencing • Captive Portal • Flexible and open service activation interface

  8. Opportunities in BAN (2) Multi Service offering Over Broadband Access Networks LeaseLines Dial Up

  9. Service Activation Interfaces • 1st Generation • Single service • Activated during subscription • 2nd Generation • Multiple services but only 1 available at any one time (OR model) • Activated during log on • 3rd Generation • Multiple services, any available at any time (AND / OR model) • Activated any time

  14. Summary • ZTP allow operators to reduce manpower cost in customer acquisitions • ZTP allow operators to easily roll out multiple services over a single Broadband Access Network • 3rd Generation Subscriber Service Activation Interface allows zero touch provisioning and activation • Advantage for operator: • More services - broader revenue base • ZTP – faster service rollout and customer commissioning • Advantage for subscribers: • Choice of services and when they want it
