Wireline Software
The explosion of data traffic driven by the rapid adoption of mobile Internet and rich media services like high definition video is driving massive innovation in wireline networks, with Ethernet being at the heart of it. New standards like 100G and server virtualization are driving the need for new telecom network equipment by both enterprises and service providers.
Our field-proven protocol stacks and software frameworks incorporating the newest technologies and standards help Telecom Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs) streamline development, reduce risk, and enable smooth deployment of differentiated products that build market share in every area of wireline network infrastructure.

OpenFlow Client
OpenFlow is an enabler of software defined networking (SDN) that allows the path of packets through the network to be determined by software running on multiple switches. OpenFlow switches use flow and group tables for packet forwarding and include an OpenFlow channel to an external controller. This separation of the control from the forwarding allows for sophisticated traffic management and routing protocols. Aricent's OpenFlow client is a portable implementation of the OpenFlow client functionality.Learn more
