November 2017 by Marc Jacob
LightRiver Software announces the availability of a
newly accessible encrypted wavelength feature for its netFLEX® software.
LightRiver’s netFLEX® optical network domain controller and orchestrator
simplifies and improves the operation of transport networks by seamlessly
integrating multiple technologies and multi-generational equipment from multiple
vendors with real-time L0/L1 discovery, fault monitoring and troubleshooting,
reporting and provisioning.
Data in transit has an amplified level of vulnerability as compared to data that is
at rest. The netFLEX Management System enables the secured transport of customers’
in-flight data as it travels from location to location, by using Software-Defined
Networking (SDN) to orchestrate the creation of encrypted optical wavelengths across
a network. The netFLEX system also supervises and manages these encrypted circuits,
along with non-encrypted circuits, from equipment at customer premises, across the
network, through equipment at customer premises at the far end.
netFLEX® software enables users to perform all operations and receive all pertinent
network information seamlessly from a single platform, with a single browser-based
GUI for DWDM, OTN, SONET, ATM ,digital cross-connect systems, radio, Ethernet and
optical devices from a wide range of vendors.
LightRiver offers the broadest Smart Network portfolio in the industry for next
generation, vendor neutral, Factory Built Networks® and netFLEX® Transport Domain
Orchestration Software solutions.
