Bridgewater: "We are Cisco Ready"

   

Bridgewater Systems issued a press release today ("Bridgewater Joins the Cisco Developer Network as a Preferred Solution Developer and Completes Interoperability Verification Testing" - here) announcing that it has completed testing with Cisco's ASR 5000 (former Starent GGSN).

The company describes (here) the PCRF-PCEF test as follows: "The Bridgewater HSS and PCRF completed IVT with the Cisco ASR 5000 for the mobile packet core, including the PCRF Gx and Gy interfaces to the packet data network gateway and the HSS S6a and STa interfaces to the Mobility Management Entity (MME) for LTE, and the PCRF Gx/Gx+, and Gy interfaces to the Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) for HSPA".

This does not change my PCRF-DPI compatibility matrix (Bridgewater/Cisco is there already) - see here.
