Cisco Presentation: Deploying ASR-5000 - Policy, DPI, Inline Services

  
A nice presentation from Cisco is available online, covering many aspects of its ASR-5000 GGSN (the former Starent product).

See "Deploying the Cisco ASR 5000 in Mobile Networks" - here.

A section titled "Intelligence, In-line Services, Monetization" (slide 57) covers policy based services, including subscriber based policy enforcement, traffic classification and filtering.  Among other things, Cisco claims to support the detection of P2P, Skype, Sling and Vonage. More information on the product's DPI capabilities, including a complete list of supported protocols and limitations is available here.

No PCRF products are mentioned by name (see related posts-  "Cisco Needs a Policy Server" - here as well as here, here and here).
