LG-Nortel's Key Telephone Team Standardizes on Nucleus IPv6 and Gains TTA's IPv6 Certification.WILSONVILLE, Ore. -- Mentor Graphics Mentor Graphics, Inc (NASDAQ: MENT) is a US-based multinational corporation dealing in electronic design automation (EDA) for electrical engineering and electronics, as of 2004, ranked third in the EDA industry it helped create. Corporation (Nasdaq:MENT) today announced that, through its collaboration with customer LG-Nortel, the Nucleus([R]) IPv6 software has been certified by the Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA TTA Telecommunications Technology Association (Korea) TTA Teacher Training Agency (UK) TTA Triangle Transit Authority (Raleigh/Chapel Hill/Durham, North Carolina, USA) ), a Korean organization that develops new standards and provides testing and certification for information technology (IT) products. Now, developers can feel confident that the networking applications they build using the Nucleus IPv6 software are stable, reliable and can fully communicate with other Internet Protocol See Internet and TCP/IP. (networking) Internet Protocol - (IP) The network layer for the TCP/IP protocol suite widely used on Ethernet networks, defined in STD 5, RFC 791. IP is a connectionless, best-effort packet switching protocol. version 6 (IPv6)-compatible devices, worldwide. Certification of the Nucleus IPv6 software is a hard requirement by the TTA and essential for LG-Nortel's successful product deployment. The recently obtained TTA certification is in addition to the "IPv6 Ready" certification that Nucleus IPv6 was previously awarded. "TTA's IPv6 certification shows LG-Nortel's cutting-edge technology and R&D capability as a global leader. "We are confident that this collaboration will meet customers' needs and lead to the success of IP telephony The two-way transmission of voice over a packet-switched IP network, which is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. The terms "IP telephony" and "voice over IP" (VoIP) are synonymous. platform," said Mr. Sung Tae Park, Head of Business Comm. & Solution Department, LG-Nortel. "And we will continuously make efforts to maximize the performance for IP telephony to offer greater benefits to our customers." When moving to a significant protocol such as IPv6, developers insist on a certified and interoperable implementation. IPv6 is a network layer protocol that allows messages to be routed among networked computers and devices. It replaces IPv4, which is at the heart of today's Internet and is a critical component in maintaining full operation of the network. Developers are wary of which IPv6 implementation they use, as a wrong choice could render a useless device once deployed in the market, resulting in a significant loss of time and money. TTA in Korea is just one of the many certification agencies conducting certification tests on IPv6 software to determine the "readiness" of a vendor's solution. Any device manufacturer that wants to create a telecom application must pass this certification test in order to attach their telecom equipment to TTA's certification logo in Korea. The Nucleus IPv6 software adheres to the strictest standards and specifications of the TTA. "The Nucleus IPv6 software is the ideal solution for embedded Inserted into.

"Working together with LG-Nortel to gain certification for both our software, as well as for their products, will prove to be a long-term benefit for both companies." Pricing and Availability The Nucleus embedded software Instructions that permanently reside in a ROM or flash memory chip. Embedded software may be immediately available to the CPU or, for faster execution, may be transferred to RAM first and then executed. is sold with source code and without royalty fees. Available now and sold as an add-on product to the Nucleus NET protocol stack The set of protocols used in a communications network. A protocol stack is a prescribed hierarchy of software layers, starting from the application layer at the top (the source of the data being sent) to the data link layer at the bottom (transmitting the bits on the wire). , licenses for the Nucleus IPv6 software begin at $11,495.
