Nokia F5 Virtualized Anti-DoS Firewall CloudBand Ecosystem Use Case
Nokia and CloudBand™ Ecosystem program member F5 Networks® have demonstrated Virtual Network Function (VNF) deployment of F5 Networks BIG-IP Advanced Firewall Manager (AFM™) on the CloudBand platform. That’s important because service providers―
to remain competitive―need to deliver cloud-based, secure, and carrier-grade services more efficiently and faster while also reducing CAPEX and OPEX. AFM is one of the modules that the F5 Network’s BIG-IP extensible Application Delivery Controller provides. Other modules include APM for SSL VPN, DNS for Global Server Load Balancing, ASM for Web Application Firewall, PEM for Service Provider’s subscribers traffic policy management
and others.
