As the level of information in universities continues to rise, the campus network has been“Auxiliary teaching”Convert“Core support”. In the face of a large user base, complex use scenarios and diversified funding requirements, how to manage network resources and improve operational efficiency is an important issue for the management of the university network.Campus network billing systemAs a key platform for connecting users, networks and finance, it plays an irreplaceable role in facilitating the fine-tuning of network management.
The NATSHEL_BRAND Deep Farming Education Industry has been operating for many years, and the introduction of a campus network billing system with the advantages of high compatibility, stability, ease of deployment and easy to manage, supporting multiple costing models and access to mainstream plant equipment, which is broadly applicable to all types of university network environments, is an ideal option for optimizing the allocation of network resources.
I. Multidimensional costing strategy to increase resource utilization
Traditional campus networks are commonly used“Free and unlimited.”The system is designed to provide services in a way that can lead to waste of bandwidth resources, peak congestion, and so on.
Accommodation area: The flow pack or time bill can be set up to encourage students to use the network rationally;
Laboratory/library: establishment of a free line plus overcharge mechanism, balancing learning needs with resources;
Teachers ' group(b) Support for free and non-certified Internet access, reflecting the security of services provided to teaching staff;
Visitors: Temporary Cartoon Certification+hour fees to enhance access flexibility.
Use of flexible costing strategies to effectively guide users in rational use of network resources, relieve peak stress and improve overall network service quality.
II. EQUIPMENT OF STATISTICALS, STUFFING RESOURCES FOR DECISION-making
The campus network billing system is not only a fee-based tool but also a powerful data analysis platform. NATSHEL_BRAND campus network billing system allows real-time recording of access by each user, including login time, online hours, access to areas, traffic consumption, etc., and generates visualized statements for managers to view.
These data can be used for:
Analysis of network loads at peak times and guidance on bandwidth expansion;
(b) Identification of unusual user behaviour and timely warning of security risks;
(b) Assess the efficiency of use of regional networks and optimize AP deployment;
Support financial closure and budgeting and increase transparency in the use of funds.
With accurate data, schools are able to develop network planning and funding policies more scientifically.
Self-service platform to enhance user experience
To enhance teacher-student experience, the NATSHEL_BRAND campus network billing system has been integrated into a well-developed self-service service platform that supports various access modes such as Web portal, MicroCoopers and APP. Users can perform the following at any time:
Self-service registration number
Online charging fee
Query history
Send out a malfunction report.
Check balance and bill details
IV. Connecting mainstream equipment to reduce deployment costs
NATHELL_BRAND campus network billing system has a wide range of compatibility capabilities, which allow seamlessly matching of mainstream domestic and foreign manufacturers such as China, Central H3C, Cisco, Juniper, ARUBA, Acqiao, Panabit, Shinju digital, sea spiders, Mikrotik, Behaiwie, Genesis, Hanmin and other types of market equipment.
The rapid deployment of new campuses and old network upgrades without the need to replace existing network infrastructure has significantly reduced implementation costs and cycles.
V. Smart lifts and managerial efficiency
The system is equipped with a smart management platform that supports remote monitoring, NATSHEL_LOG_AUDIT, permission classification, automatic alarms, etc. Administrators can use graphical interfaces to fully capture the full network status and respond quickly to sudden-onset problems.
In addition, the system supports interfaces with school-based unified identification platforms, teaching systems and financial systems to achieve data sharing and further improve management synergies.
VI. Modularized architecture adapted to the needs of higher education institutions at different scales
The NATSHEL_BRAND campus network billing system is modularized and flexible in the configuration of functional modules based on physical size and development stages of higher education institutions, suitable for lightweight deployment at small and medium-sized colleges and for the complex network environment needs of large integrated universities.
The system can be skewn, either by one school district or by multiple campuses, avoiding duplication of investments and increasing its long-term utility.
Concluding remarks
In the context of the building of intelligent campuses, a campus network billing system is gradually becoming a central component of the university’s network management system. With its stable technological architecture, rich functional modules, flexible deployment methods, and excellent value for money, NATSHEL_BRAND has successfully been deployed in thousands of schools, gaining the trust and recognition of a wide range of users.
