SCE Platform Description
SCE Platform Description
The SCE family of programmable network devices performs application-layer stateful-flow inspection
of IP traffic, and controls the traffic based on configurable rules. The SCE platform is a network device
that uses ASIC components and reduced instruction set computer (RISC) processors to exceed beyond
packet counting and expand into the contents of network traffic. Providing programmable, stateful
inspection of bidirectional traffic flows, and mapping these flows with user ownership, SCE platforms
provide real-time classification of network use. The classification provides the basis of the SCE platform
advanced traffic-control and bandwidth-policing functionality. Where most bandwidth control
functionality ends, the SCE platform provides further control and shaping options, including:
• Layer 7 stateful wire-speed packet inspection and classification.
• Robust support for more than 600 protocols and applications, including:
–
General—HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, Telnet, NNTP, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), Post
Office Protocol 3 (POP3), Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP), Wireless Application
Protocol (WAP), and others
–
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing—FastTrack-KazaA, Gnutella, BitTorrent, Winny, Hotline,
eDonkey, DirectConnect, Piolet, and others
–
P2P VoIP—Skype, Skinny, DingoTel, and others
–
Streaming and Multimedia—Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP), Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP), HTTP streaming, Real Time Protocol (RTP) and Real Time Control Protocol (RTCP), and
others
• Programmable system core for flexible reporting and bandwidth control.
• Transparent network and BSS and OSS integration into existing networks.
• Subscriber awareness that relates traffic and usage to specific customers.
