As P2P applications and sites become increasingly popular, ISP’s are faced with bandwidth issues resulting in deteriorating performance of mission critical business applications.
PPTM was specifically designed for the broadband service provider’s backbone network. It utilizes ARA’s proprietary technology, the NMP(Network Monitoring Platform), which identifies, detects and controls P2P traffic using L7 traffic classification mechanisms. |

| Product Overview |
|
| High Performance 10G POS/Ethernet |
| Broadband service providers have adopted 10GE/POS backbone networks to handle rapidly increasing Internet traffic and demand for quality of service. PPTM supports 10GE/POS and provides a valuable solution to alleviate this pressure. The graph on the following page shows the correlation between throughput and CPU usage utilizing ARA’s PPTM. The results show that CPU usage remains relatively low as throughput increases. |
|
| Asynchronous Traffic Control |
| Major service provider networks are prone to asymmetric routes caused by inbound and outbound traffic from the subscribers. Specific identification becomes difficult due to these asymmetric routes. PPTM can overcome these challenges with a unique traffic identification technology that ensures accurate protocol identification without affecting the network routing. |
|
| Network Fail Safe Operation |
| PPTM uses tap-mirroring topology, which is not only cost-effective, but offers more comprehensive protection than simple hardware replication and bypass systems. Outline traffic capture capability ensures the continuation of the subscriber’s traffic without interruption even in the event of system failures. |
