Changes are Invariable. Consistency and Logic Matters.
Highly integrated, MEF-compliant CE2.0 & LSO Services.
With the roll-out of CE services by internet and communications service providers, MEF provides the fundamental blueprint to make it all work by developing architectural, service and management technical specifications and implementation agreements to be followed. Symphony CE adheres to latest MEF specifications viz. for Service activation - MEF 7.2, 10.3; Performance reporting - MEF 35 & 36; Network configuration as per MEF 38, 39 YANG Modules.
Different Services. Different Operator. Different Vendors.
Industry-first unified service orchestration across L2/L3 Ethernet and MPLS networks.
-
