A10 Networks (NYSE: ATEN), a provider of intelligent and
automated cybersecurity solutions, today announced an Asian Tier-1
mobile service provider has selected the A10 5G-GiLANTM solution
for its next-gen 5G-ready network rollout. The service provider is
leveraging the Gi/SGi firewall and advanced network translation
components to provide the scale and security needed to meet the
demands of its 5G infrastructure rollout and IoT adoption.
As the service provider plans to rapidly commercialize 5G
services beginning early in 2019, they needed a consolidated
security and networking solution to seamlessly integrate with its
vEPC platform. It also required the solution to address rising IPv6
demands by supporting IPv4 to IPv6 network interoperability in
their network.
“We are pleased to have been selected by the Tier-1 provider in
a highly competitive bake-off. The fast-approaching rollout of 5G
networks around the world represents a dramatic transformation in
mobile services, including exciting new revenue opportunities for
service providers,” said Lee Chen, CEO of A10 Networks. “However,
it will also elevate the breadth and sophistication of IP-based
threats facing carriers and their customers. The A10 5G-GiLAN
solution plays a major role in helping service providers simplify,
scale and secure their 5G deployments. We are currently working
with many Tier-1 providers who are seeking next-generation security
and networking solutions for 5G.”
The customer selected the A10 Thunder® CFW 5G-GiLAN solution to
accelerate its 5G deployment with the following capabilities:
- Comprehensive 5G mobile core protection
with the A10 Thunder CFW GiLAN consolidation of GiFW and CGNAT
solution.
- Proven capabilities to enable CGNAT and
GiFW, simultaneously with IPv6 migration technologies (NAT64,
464XLAT) on the same device, as well as advanced reliability and
feature-rich ALG support.
- Sustained scalability, performance and
exceptional connection rates vs. two leading competitors, resulting
in lower overall total cost of ownership (TCO).
