SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- KT Deploys E-Series and SDX-300 Service Deployment System to Expand Broadband Capacity and Services

Juniper Networks Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR) is an information technology company based in Sunnyvale, California and founded in 1996. The company designs and sells Internet Protocol network products and services. , Inc. (Nasdaq:JNPR JNPR Juniper Networks, Inc. (stock symbol) ) today announced that KT has selected Juniper Networks ERX-1440 Edge Routing Platforms and the SDX-300 Service Deployment System for the next phase of its expansion of value-added broadband services.

"After a rigorous selection process, I am pleased to announce that KT has chosen Juniper Networks technology for this phase of our broadband expansion," said KC Park, director, Internet Planning Division, Internet Planning Team, KT Corporation. "One of the key challenges we faced was providing a rich suite of services to our customers with an easy-to-use interface. We were most impressed by the extensive subscriber-management features enabled by the SDX (1) See AIT.

(2) (Storage Data Acceleration) An earlier technique from Western Digital that improved performance of IDE CD-ROM drives. SDX-compliant drives used a special 10-pin cable, but the method never took off.
. The new solution means KT customers will not only enjoy reliable, high-performance IP services, but can also manage those services themselves, on demand, with a single sign-on An identification system that lets users log into multiple Web sites on the Internet with one username and password. Single sign-on systems are also used within an enterprise, enabling users to access all authorized resources in the local network using the same username and password.  process."

The deployment gives KT both the capacity to service additional broadband customers and the ability to enable customers to dynamically manage their service provisioning. KT can then provide a new suite of value-added, self-manageable IP services to its customer base with single sign-on via unified authentication and authorization based on RADIUS and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Software that automatically assigns temporary IP addresses to client stations logging into an IP network. It eliminates having to manually assign permanent "static" IP addresses. DHCP software runs in servers and routers. .

, cable, Ethernet, Wi-Fi 802.11 wireless hotspots, SONET and fixed wireless. Also, working in conjunction with Juniper Networks routing platforms, the SDX software enables subscriber managers to activate service offerings as they need them and automatically provision the network to deliver those services in real-time. The SDX system is dynamic, comprised of standardized application programming interfaces (APIs) which can be customized, extended, and integrated with other systems, ensuring quick implementation and time-to-revenue, and reliable service delivery.
