In the digital transition, business networks are coming from“A single support tool”♪ Evolving to“Core factors of production”. However, when the network carries a full-scale business such as office, production, marketing and customer services, it transmits statistical fees“Only traffic records, simple charges”The functionality is far from meeting the demand: how can network resource dynamics be distributed through a billing system? How can multi-brand equipment be compatible with avoid duplication of investments? How can untechnical teams be easily able to manage complex networks?
As a 21-year industry sticker in the field of deep-dry NATSHELLL_AUTH_BILLING, NATSHEL_BRAND“Ecology of compatible equipment, light-quantified transport support systems, scenario metering models”Three major innovations, redefining the value boundaries of network-based costing systems to provide for 12 major industries such as education, health, manufacturing and retail“Lower efficiency and security control”.
I. Network costing system“Evolutionism”: From fee-for-tool to smart operation hub
Traditional web billing systems focus on“After payment”The scenario, which is limited to flow statistics and billing generation, has led to three major pains for businesses:
Allocation of resources“One cut.”: Staff share the same network with visitors and key operations (e.g., financial systems, remote surgery) are disrupted by crowding out bandwidth;
Equipment management“Fragmentation”: Multi-certificate systems will be required to accommodate different branding equipment (e.g., Chinese switchboard + CiscoAP+H3C firewalls), with a surge in transportation costs;
Security“Passive”: The practice of private routers, account sharing etc. is difficult to trace and a hospital has lost over $2 million in the leaking of patient data due to theft of WiFi by insiders.
Industry data: According to IDC research, 63 per cent of enterprises experienced an annual increase in operating costs by 15-30 per cent due to network management inefficiencies, with inadequate compatibility of their system and high transport complexity being the central reasons.
NatShell solution: upgrade network billing system to“Resource movement + security control + user operations”The three-one smart hub, which enables network access through full equipment compatibility, dynamic bandwidth distribution, and conduct audit tracking“Available”Here.“Controllable, superior and value-added”The crossing.
II. Three core advantages of NatShell: compatibility, intelligence, sustainability
1. Full equipment compatibility: break brand barriers and reduce integration costs by 50 per cent
NatShell Authentication & Billing Support System (ABILLING) supports seamless interface with 200+ branding equipment such as H3C, Ericsson, JUNIPER, ARUBA and covers the enterprise-level core exchange, commercial site AC controllers, industrial landscape-resistant AP, etc.
Technological breakthrough: adoption“Protocol translation engine”Technology, ADR plant private agreement (e.g. HWTACCS+ and Cisco TACCS+) to convert it into a standard RADIUS protocol, to be achieved“One configuration, full-network common”;
Case scenario: A multinational manufacturing enterprise deployed NatShell systems to 15 plants worldwide, with a parallel PLC private exchange for Siemens and Rocwell Industries AP-Wuer office network equipment, avoiding certification failures or miscalculations due to the asomer of equipment, resulting in an annual equipment maintenance cost reduction of 48 per cent.
2. Light Quantified Delivery: Allow untechnical teams to manage easily
System settings“Zero Code Configuration Platform”, streamline complex network management to:“Three-step operation”：
Step 1: Device access: scanning the device with a 2-D code or input SN codes, system automatic identification model and matching driver templates;
Step 2: strategy: select the scene through a template library (e.g. factory production network, hotel room network), with one key to apply preset QoS, authentication, billing rules;
Step 3: Smart surveillance: AI engines analyse network traffic, equipment status, user behaviour in real time and automatically generate optimization recommendations (e.g. adjust a regional AP channel, block an unusual login account).
User feedback: The director of IT in a chain hotel said:“The network of 200 shops nationwide used to be managed by a team of 10 people, and only 2 people now need to use mobile APP to complete the certification strategy update, fault check and lift up 400 per cent of the transport efficiency.”
3. Scene accounting: from“Crude fees”Here.“Precision operations”
NATSHEL_BRAND“Base costing + value-added services”· A flexible mix that meets the needs of different industries:
(a) Education sector: teachers use the educational network free of charge, students are charged on a flow/time basis and visitors are certified through micro-mail sweeps and time-limited and free;
Medical sector: Priority for 100 Mbps bandwidth at doctor ' s workstations, through the family of patients“Basic flow plus payment acceleration packages”The mode uses WiFi;
Industrial scenes: Production equipment is isolated from the office network, VLAN is divided by sector and outer access is restricted to prevent a virus invasion that would result in the shutdown of production lines.
Impact validation: After the deployment of a three-A hospital, the Caden rate for the medical system was reduced from 12 per cent to 0.3 per cent and patient satisfaction increased by 25 per cent, while health content was distributed through WiFi certification pages, resulting in an annual increase of 5 million brand exposures.
III. From“Cost centre”Here.“Value Engine”: Re-engineering of commercial value of network billing systems
1. Direct reduction: 30 per cent reduction in network operating expenditure
Through dynamic bandwidth distribution and smart billing strategies, enterprises can avoid traffic waste and overprocurement:
(a) A logistics enterprise case: the 100Mbps line was purchased centrally for 500 warehouses nationwide, and NATSHEL_BRAND system was deployed to build up to 500Mbps based on peak (e.g. double-xis) dynamics, which normally downgraded to 50 Mbps, resulting in annual network cost savings of $320,000;
A shopping mall case: adopted“Free basic flow plus paid high-speed access”The model translates the WiFi marketing budget that was originally invested into flow gains, generating a monthly gain of $180,000.
2. Indirect efficiency gains: enhanced business continuity and user experience
The high availability of architecture (99.99 per cent online) and the ability to heal from intelligent failures can significantly reduce the risk of network interruptions:
(a) A financial institution case: the availability of a core trading system network was raised from 99.5 per cent to 99.999 per cent following the deployment of a two-error heating plus offsite disaster relief programme, with annual transaction losses due to network failures reduced by $20 million;
In one case: the use of electronic guides, coupons and other services via WiFi certification pages has resulted in a 40 per cent increase in visitor time and a 22 per cent increase in secondary consumption.
3. Security compliance: satisfaction of the requirement for a waiting period of 2.0 with industry regulation
System settings“User identification audit + behavioural retrospective + data encryption”Three-fold security mechanisms:
A government agency case: smoothing through the 2.0 Level 3 certification, etc., to avoid administrative penalties and brand loss for data disclosure by authenticating physical names, keeping access logs and alerting irregularities.
Concluding remarks: Select NATSHEL_BRAND to make the network billing system grow“Second Curve”
