Sniffer® Mobile Intelligence



Enabling Operators to Test, Deploy, and Operate their Mobile-IP Networks

In order to successfully acquire and retain both consumer and business customers, mobile service providers need tools to help them optimize performance, and when problems do occur, to quickly identify them and reduce the time required to resolve service impacting issues. Mobile service providers require a solution to help them reduce mean time to repair (MTTR) and improve network and service assurance with advanced, customer/service-aware performance analysis and troubleshooting.

Utilizing the functionality, performance, and reliability of nGenius® InfiniStream™, Sniffer® Mobile Intelligence enables mobile wireless carriers to test, deploy, and operate 2.5G, 3G and emerging 4G mobile wireless data networks by providing protocol analysis and reporting tools for the wired/core side of General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)2000, WiMAX, and Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (W-CDMA) networks. UsingSniffer Mobile Intelligence mobile operators are able to more quickly resolve issues related to subscriber registration, network latency, dropped packets, and application response times, as well as Mobile IP and GPRS Tunneling Protocols (GTP).

    • Wireless Application Protocols (WAP)
    • Short Message Peer to Peer Protocol (SMPP)
    • Point to Point Protocol (PPP)
    • Wireless Session Protocol (WSP)
  • Advanced Mobile Filtering: Efficiently mine wide timeframes of traffic to discover mobile sessions for specific subscribers on CDMA2000 networks. Filtering on mobile core network controls protocols, International Mobile Subscriber Identifier (IMSI), and Network Access Identifier (NAI).
  • Subscriber Summary: Enabled in combination with nGenius InfiniStream, Sniffer Mobile Intelligence provides a list of the CDMA2000 subscriber session data sessions that match the subscriber and time-based filters selected in the mining console.
  • Expert Analysis: Expert symptoms and diagnoses make it possible to discover network inefficiencies before they lead to more substantial deterioration in network performance. Sniffer Mobile Intelligence integrates with nGenius InfiniStream to provide Expert analysis for GTP, Mobile IP and RADIUS. For CDMA2000 networks, individual Mobile IP GRE and IP-IP tunnels are identified and processed – even revealing the tunneled applications and their performance characteristics.
