3G Service Provider Solution
It is predicted an increase of two billion wireless broadband consumers by 2015. To monetize this rapid growing trend, mobile network service providers look to traffic analysis and management solutions to optimize their mobile broadband services while simultaneously lowering their capital and operational expenditures. GenieNRM 3G solution enables mobile service providers to effectively manage their converged IP networks in terms of network-wide visibility, threat detection and mitigation, Quality of Service and tiered bandwidth allocation.

3G Service Traffic Visibility
GenieNRM 3G solution offers up to L7 traffic visibility of 3G services, including WAP, RTSP, VoIP, IM, P2P, HTTP, SMTP, POP3, Video applications, Stock applications, Game applications, News group applications, etc. For specific applications, GenieNRM 3G solution can provide further in-depth analysis, such as:

• For HTTP: analyze the URL, hostname, method (Delete, Get, Post, Put, etc.), content type, status code, etc.
• For WSP: analyze the URI, method (Delete, Get, Head, etc.), content type, status code, etc.
• For MMS: analyze the URI, sender, receiver (To, Cc, Bcc, etc.), response status code, etc.
• For FTP: analyze the file name, command (store, retrieve, etc.) etc.
• For Streaming protocols: analyze RTSP, RTP, RTCP, SDP protocols; tracking RTSP port negotiation; analyze method (Play, Pause, Stop, etc.)
• For IM: support a number of IM protocols, with HTTP proxy, and without.
• For Mail protocols: string matching of sender and receiver; analyze commands (Retr, Top, List, etc.)

Troubleshooting
When there are anomalies happening on the network, mobile service providers require a tool which can locate the source of the problems effectively. With the intelligence of mobile subscriber identity, base station identity and L7 application content, GenieNRM 3G solution offers network-wide traffic visibility and real-time troubleshooting capability to address mobile service providers’ requirements.

3G Traffic Anomaly Detection & Mitigation
By connecting to a variety of external data networks including those of roaming partners, corporate customers and the Internet, mobile service providers are facing the risks of more and more attacks initiating from the external networks. On the other hand the faster mobile data speeds make more mobile devices becoming the target of security threats. Also there are new attacks emerged in mobile networks such as “Overbilling Attack,” and these usually cause serious customer discontent. The anomaly detection and mitigation capability of GenieNRM 3G solution assist mobile service providers in detection and tracing mobile network security threats.

Tiered /Bandwidth Control
Due to the inherently capacity-limited by the radio frequency access spectrum of wireless 3G networks, throwing additional bandwidth into the network clearly won’t work for 3G operators to resolve bandwidth abuse issues. Therefore, mobile service providers suffer from the bandwidth abuse problem more than fixed network service providers. With the policy-based traffic control capability of GenieNRM 3G solution, mobile providers can manage bandwidth consumption on a per-service, per-subscriber, per -URL, per-PDP/APN, per-time-period, per-customer-type, and per-quota basis. The capability can help service providers not only mitigate the bandwidth abuse problem, but also build better service pricing plans for their different types of customers (e.g. VIP customers, regular customers).
