Web portal of the next generation network multiservice platform equipment

Nowadays a lot of various type equipment manufactured by both foreign and native companies is widely used in Russia telecommunications for the next generation networks (NGNs). Finally particular network equipment should be selected during the last stages of design NGN. It has to satisfy some preset requirements to both technical and maintenance parameters and characteristics. However it is a complex problem to make a choice for necessary NGN equipment for design, researches or education due to lack of systematized information about its features and comparison ability. We propose to solve described problem by using public web portal of multiservice NGN platforms developed in Povolzhskiy State University of Telecommunications and Informatics (PSUTI, Samara, Russia). This work describes web portal goals and abilities, presents system software architecture and data base structure. Developed web portal satisfies to requirements of information content users as well as NGN platform manufacturers and portal owner. Design companies, service providers, consulting firms and integrators have fast and easy access to great database of NGN platform components via Internet. NGN platform manufactures get unital professional advertising platform in the Internet, they are able quickly add new information about new products or correct data concerned with earlier on manufactured components. Described web portal is important for teaching staff, students and postdoc students specializing in the research and educational fields of telecommunications.
