Control & Orchestration

SD-WAN SD-WAN is a network architecture that applies centralized policy to traffic flows across multiple wide area transport links. It typically uses branch edge devices, overlay tunnels, telemetry, and orchestration software… Service Model Secure Command Channel A secure command channel is a communications channel that protects command traffic against unauthorized access, modification, and replay. It is used to deliver control instructions reliably and safely to a… Concept/Framework Secure Telecommand Channel Secure Telecommand Channel is a protected command path that ensures telecommand messages are authenticated, controlled, and resistant to unauthorized access. Protocol Sensor A sensor is a transducer that detects a property of the environment or process and produces a corresponding electrical, digital, or optical signal. That signal is then used for monitoring,… Hardware Service Assurance Service Assurance is the operational practice of monitoring, analyzing, and maintaining service performance so it meets required service levels. It links operational data to service quality through continuous measurement and… Operations Service Beam Assignment Service Beam Assignment is the assignment of a satellite beam or service region to a user, demand area, or traffic group. It links beam resources to service demand. Operations Service Chaining Service Chaining is the ordered passing of traffic through multiple network or security services before it reaches its destination. Service Model Setpoint A setpoint is the reference value against which a controller compares the current state of a process. The control system acts to reduce the error between the measured value and… Concept/Framework Software Defined Networking Software Defined Networking is a network architecture that separates control logic from forwarding behavior and manages the network through software-based control. It decouples decision-making from packet handling. Concept/Framework Software Defined Payload Software Defined Payload is a communications payload whose functions are controlled, configured, or reconfigured through software rather than being fixed entirely by hardware design.
