In the midst of a digital transition in higher education, campus network has been“Basic services”Upgrade To“Strategic resources”But the traditional school access billing system is often stuck.“It's a very high function, but it's not experienced, it's managed well and at high cost.”NATSHEL_BRAND, based on 21-year technological advances in the wireless Authentication & Billing field, is being launched by the NETSHELL-BILLING project.“Light Quantified Core+Intelligent Services”School access billing system, as a result“** Subtract thinking”Adding to redefine the campus network to manage borders.
I. Light Quantified structure: breaking“Hardware”The old logic of reducing deployment costs by 30 per cent
Traditional campus networks cover high-density scenes, often through“Number of stacked APs”Address signal problems resulting in redundancy and energy consumption. NATSHEL_BRAND“Core gateways + intelligent diversion”Technology to achieve better coverage with fewer devices:
Authentication dial gateway“It's more than a machine.”: Integrated authentication, billing, proxy dialling, traffic control four main functions to replace traditional schemes“Authentication server plus billing system+dial router”The case of a 10,000 university students shows that the number of equipment has been reduced by 40% and the room space saved by 60%, following the introduction of the NatShell gateway.
AI Dynamic channel distribution: The system automatically adjusts the wi-Fi AP's channel and power by analysing user distribution and flow requirements. For example, at night peaks in dormitories, the system reduces the A-sign dynamic of idle classrooms, centralizes resources to guarantee a smooth network of accommodations, and increases single AP coverage by 25%.
Green energy-saving models: non-teaching hours (e.g. 1 - 6 a.m.), systems automatically reduce the AP launch power to 30 per cent, combined with the PoE switch function, which results in annual electricity savings of over 100,000 degrees for single campuses, equivalent to an 80-ton reduction in CO2 emissions.
II. Smart services: from“People looking for services.”Here.“Services are looking for people.”To improve the teacher's and student's experience
The campus network is used by teachers and students, but traditional systems are often mistreated due to the complexity of their operations and delays in feedback.“Active perception + intelligent response”Mechanisms to increase efficiency of services by 80 per cent:
Students: No Sensibility + Smart Early Warning
No sense authentication: after the first student login, the system automatically binds the device ' s MAC address to account number and subsequent connections do not require duplicate password entry.“The Internet is on.”。
Flow warning: when students use 80 per cent of the package, the system sends reminders via micro-mail; automatically switch to low-priced traffic packages after overspending“Disconnected anxiety.”A university test shows that complaints of over-expenditure in traffic have decreased by 92%.
Teacher: One key priority + exclusive access
One key priority: when teachers launch online courses on the teaching platform, they automatically recognize and upgrade their equipment bandwidth priorities to ensure that no Katon is broadcast live.
The system has been deployed to a secondary school, where the number of breaks on-line has decreased from 15% to 0.3%.
Carrierend: AI default + autorepair
Fault prejudicing: The system monitors the temperature of equipment, traffic loads, interface status, etc. 200+ indicators in real time and predicts failure risk through machine learning models. For example, when a PPU occupancy rate exceeds 80% for 30 minutes, the system automatically marks as“Potential malfunction”And notify the carrier.
Automatic restoration: The system can automatically switch back-up nodes or restart services for common problems (e.g. authentication server crashes, DNS configuration errors), and the time of failure recovery is reduced from an average of 30 minutes to 90 seconds.
III. OPEN WORD: COMPLETE WITH THE SCHOOL SYSTEM, TO COLOR“Information Islands”
The campus network needs to work with multiple systems such as the teaching service, finance, and a cartoon, but traditional programmes often break up data due to incompatibility of interfaces. NATSHEL_BRAND provides standardized API interfaces and low-code development platforms that support rapid interfaces with the original campus system:
Connect to the teaching system: automatic synchronization of student numbers, classes and dormitories information, achieved“School enrolment is the launch of a network, graduation is the cancellation of accounts”, reduce manual error.
Connect with the financial system: billing data are sent to the finance platform in real time, supporting the generation of statements by multidimensional dimensions such as college, grade and user type, avoiding manual reconciliations that take time and effort.
Interfacing with a cartoon system: students can contribute to self-service terminals through school cards, search traffic and even directly offset the net fees at cafeterias and supermarkets.
Concluding remarks:“Light”Breaking the game,“Ji!”Enabling. The campus network is upgraded in time.
When education informs into deep water, school access billing systems are more than just“Fee-making tool”, and connect to the students and teachers, equipment, data“Neurocentre”NATSHEL_BRAND provides replicable access to the campus network through light-quantitative structures that reduce costs, intelligent services upgrade and open ecology break barriers.“Derogation philosophy”The system currently serves over 300 institutions throughout the country, helping to reduce on average 40 per cent of the cost of carrying out a function and increasing user satisfaction by 60 per cent.
