Essentially, the BNG is designed to establish and manage subscriber sessions, which it does by aggregating traffic from multiple subscriber sessions and routing it to the network of the service provider. In the past, BNGs didn&#8217;t do any routing, but modern routers are now much more sophisticated and requirements have also risen.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Some people use the term Broadband Remote Access Server (BRAS) for BNG.<\/div>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.broadband-forum.org\/marketing\/download\/TR-459.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Broadband Forum&#8217;s TR-459<\/a> standard reflects that of a <strong>Disaggregated Broadband Network Gateway<\/strong> (DBNG), which essentially separates the control plane and user plane functions by means of open and standardised interworking protocols.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of DBNG is essentially to simplify BNG deployment, while also providing greater flexibility and scalability to help keep up with modern developments. One good example of such a development is the rise in convergence between fixed line broadband and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a> mobile (mobile broadband) networks, which is something that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a>) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> \/ VMO2) are working on.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a>&#8217;s test harnessed this new open architecture (DBNG via TR-459) to enable it to work using separate software and hardware from multiple vendors. &#8220;<em>This is an important step in opening up the current single-supplier, monolithic broadband gateways to greater technological innovation from a more diverse supply chain<\/em>,&#8221; said the operator. The DBNG technology &#8220;<em>will change the way broadband networks are built<\/em>,&#8221; added <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The test allowed the core control functions of the gateway, such as authenticating a user and increasing bandwidth to support streaming services, to be separated and managed efficiently in the cloud whilst ensuring multi-vendor interoperability. Vodafone can then separately upgrade, scale and deploy new features and add more capacity, enabling greater agility and faster time to market when making enhancements across its pan-European network.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Johan Wibergh, Vodafone&#8217;s CTO, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are already driving a more diverse and open mobile ecosystem with Open RAN, and now we are targeting fixed broadband.
