Wireless Network Gateway™
4.1.2 Wireless Network Gateway™
The WNG is a software platform designed to link wireline data networks to
Motorola radio frequency (RF) networks by managing message traffic to and
from the wireless network. The modular software of the WNG can be
ordered to fit system configurations and provides the foundation for
supporting future enhancements.
The WNG provides wireless data users with the following:
• Mobile user registration
• Mobile user authorization
• Group messaging
• IP unit-to-unit messaging
• IP outbound message queuing
• IP with header/data compression
• SNMP-based network management support
• WNG controlled RNC redundancy
• Mobility management
• FLM host connectivity
• Over-the-Air Rekeying (OTAR) support
• Security services
WNG provides the interconnection of wireline networks and RF data
networks. The WNG requires either a non-fault tolerant VME chassis (T6517)
or fault tolerant VME chassis (T5901) hardware platform and software
(T5814) to operate in a Private DataTAC system.
The WNG provides detailed statistics and alarm information to monitor
operation and loading to support audit, diagnostic, and optimization
activities which can be viewed directly via the WNG or through the
FullVision INM.
4.1.2.1 WNG Hardware
The Wireless Network Gateway software utilizes the IBM® AIX® operating
system running on a powerful Motorola RISC-based hardware platform
supporting up to 12,000 registered users. The WNG in both an XR series and
the Fault Tolerant hardware platforms assure high availability and data
integrity.
A basic WNG configuration would include Private DataTAC system
software, an IP and/or FLM host interface, an XR12 or Fault Tolerant VME-
based chassis, power cable, and a local console with keyboard.
