CONTENTS:
This vendor-independent 3-days course covers design, deployment and measurement of a generic EPC Network. The
course demonstrates how EPC traffic analysis drives design and deployment for EPC nodes such as MME, SGW,
PGW, HSS and PCRF. Furthermore the course examines mobility management and measurements related to the PDNGW for a GTP based S5/S8. Measurements related to the MBMS GW and PCRF as well as Load Balancing and
Overload Control mechanisms for EPC nodes are covered. Generic walkthrough of EPC Measurement and EPC KPI?s ar
e based on 3GPP specifications.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
This course is for professionals working with EPC with good knowledge of the functional elements in EPC.
