Ensure long-term profitability by evolving your IP network

Insight-driven IP networks let you deliver services faster, run your network more cost-effectively and ensure that your customers get the quality of experience (QoE) and security they expect. They help you seize the opportunities of the cloud, 5G, Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things (IoT) era by enabling you to:

Meet your capacity, cost and performance objectives
Fine-tune your network based on real-time traffic insights
Streamline your network operations

Close the loop between business intent and service outcomes

An insight-driven IP network enables you to align business intent and service outcomes with a new operational model based on advanced network visibility and control.

It translates massive volumes of network data into insights that you can use to program better network behaviors and performance.

We help you realize this new vision of networking with:

Massively scalable, high-performance IP routers that let you support push-based models for data telemetry and model-driven programmability
A big-data analytics processing engine that gives you actionable insights by ingesting, filtering, verifying and correlating petabytes of data about security and IP traffic flows
SDN control that translates your intent into actions to program the network, uses actionable insights to confirm that the outcomes meet your goals and takes corrective action as needed

Evolve your IP routing infrastructure for the digital era

Our industry-leading IP routers help you build modern networks that deliver game-changing applications and mission-critical connectivity services to millions of users. We offer a rich portfolio of purpose-built platforms that enable you to achieve your cost, performance and security objectives for a broad range of service roles and network functions.

Reduce cost, boost performance

Our platforms combine custom-built FP4 routing silicon and best-of-breed merchant silicon with a common router OS. They give you the freedom to optimize cost and performance as you choose solutions for IP mobile transport, aggregation and interconnect, edge routers for service provider and webscale networks, data center interconnect, IP/MPLS backbone routers and internet peering.

Do more with a proven router OS

Our proven, feature-rich Service Router Operating System (SR OS) enables advanced push-based telemetry and vendor-neutral programmability by supporting open, model-driven management based on NETCONF/YANG and gRPC/gNMI with OpenConfig data models.

Get security you can trust

We support a “security by design” philosophy that builds comprehensive security capabilities into the router hardware and OS. These capabilities include:

Secure access to the router
Use of hardware QoS to stop attack traffic aimed at the control plane
IPSec support for transport security
Advanced DDoS mitigation implemented within our FP4-based routers

Support continuous improvement

Our routing platforms let you add features continuously through software upgrades, without disrupting your services. An extensible design ensures that our systems will outlast your business case needs in the most demanding network environments.

Application note

Secure the IP gateways in your 5G era network

Cloud-based content consumption and ever-increasing bandwidth demands are driving networking suppliers to deliver higher subscriber scale, bandwidth capacity and performance in their IP gateways. However, a topic that often is not considered relates to security of these IP gateways.

Gain superior visibility with software-based network analytics

Nokia Deepfield is a massively scalable software platform that provides real-time network insight, analytics and DDoS security capabilities. It can help you understand how network flows traverse the internet and your network, and how your end systems and subscribers are consuming services and CDNs. And it doesn’t require any additional hardware appliances or probes.

Get multidimensional network insight in real time

Deepfield software can ingest, process and correlate large volumes of data to provide multidimensional network insight real time. It enriches information from your network and other data sources with our Deepfield Cloud Genome® and Deepfield Secure Genome data sets. These data sets contain up-to-date, categorized information about billions of IPv4 and IPv6 internet endpoints.

Minimize the impact and cost of terabit-scale attacks

Our advanced DDoS security solution uses real-time traffic visibility to uncover and minimize the impact of sophisticated, volume-intensive, terabit-scale attack vectors. It can reduce your DDoS mitigation costs by 65–85 percent by removing the need to redirect infected traffic to DDoS scrubbing centers and backhaul it twice through the network.

Stop DDoS attacks as they happen

Deepfield provides real-time DDoS threat detection and agile mitigation. You can combine these capabilities with FP4-based routers to create a next-generation security perimeter – a step forward from legacy approaches based on expensive hardware probes or cloud-based protection solutions.

Streamline your operations with automation, management and control

Our insight-driven IP networks help you build programmable networks that deliver the responsiveness, efficiency and reliability you need to meet the time, cost, performance and quality requirements of the digital economy.

The closed loop is the key to advanced automation. Our insight-driven IP networks combine real-time visibility with fine-grained control to ensure that the outcome of the closed loop meets your intended goal.

Reap the benefits of network automation

Keep your business running profitably

Our Network Services Platform (NSP) helps you cut down the cost of repetitive tasks and simplify your operations by tapping into the power of machine learning. With machine learning, you can address and automate tasks that are too complex for humans to process. This reduces human errors and system outages so you can deliver consistent, predictable outcomes.

Boost your agility in every dimension

With NSP, you can design custom workflows and automate routine tasks to increase your agility and respond faster to changing demands. Our model-driven interfaces enable you to automate networks in multivendor environments that span the IP and optical layers.

Automate your way

Our developer portal includes a wide range of open APIs and tutorials that will help you program your network, quickly develop connected applications and simplify OSS integration.
