Page 2 of 2 Ian Stanley, national manager, at Telstra, said: "The intelligent interaction between the network and service frameworks will be a critical success factor in the deployment of Application Assured Networking."Our multi-site IPsphere implementation enables us not only to test our own service delivery environment, but also to validate it with other service providers as part of the TM Forum's worldwide IPsphere field trial.'"

Coward never mentioned the IPsphere Forum but it clearly underpinned the concepts set out in his presentation. He floated the idea of an "open garden" model one in which carriers add value to content hosted by themselves, partners or across the Internet in which they can add value to their own and partner content by guaranteeing service parameters to ensure an optimal user experience. "Experience is a value that only the network can deliver, Coward said. Telstra's trial network is built on Juniper Networks switches and routers with the IPsphere framework implemented by Net One Systems. Net One has developed IPsphere Service Management System (SMS) software using Juniper's Open IP Service Creation Program (OSCP). Formally launched in January 2007, OSCP is billed as "an application development program for creating innovative IP service management functionality by leveraging the power of the Juniper Networks Session and Resource Control Portfolio." Net One joined Juniper's OSCP as the first IPsphere solution integration partner in May this year. |
