• Portal redirection—Clients can be directed to a “forced portal” for authentication or
to deliver dynamic content. The service provider is able to control and differentiate
network service better.
• IP multicast—Multimedia content can be delivered to subscribers. By using IGMP
snooping, the SMS2000 facilitates multicast delivery.
• PPTP passthrough—Point-to-point tunneling protocol can be used by subscribers
even if the subscriber’s IP address is shared via NAT.
• Service management—Service providers can use the OCS to offer multiple custom
service levels to entice customers with a diverse set of connectivity needs and
demands, targeted specifically to individual users and/or time periods.
• Reports—OCS is equipped with many useful reports designed to assist users in
managing their networks.
• Self provisioning—Using the OCS, subscribers can choose their own level of service,
including bandwidth and IP type (NAT, static, DHCP).
