Overview

Cisco Virtualized Packet Core (VPC) is the productized version of the StarOS software, which has so far been deployed on dedicated hardware platforms, but can now also run inside a virtual machine. This dCloud demo provides access to a fully configured and functional Evolved Packet Core network, where StarOS provides the MME, SGSN, SGW, PGW, and GGSN functions, while surrounding network elements are implemented through simulators such as HSS, PCRF, OCS, LIMS, and CGF.

Hi can you advise whether there is an ordering guide for PMB?

Hi Rays,

This is Kevin from dCloud -after looking at your request, I don't see any PMB instance in the demo guide or a reference to it. So, I'm not sure how to address your question.

However, I contacted someone from BU with regards to your request and the PMB guide is not accessible online. If you let me know your contact info, I can have someone from the BU team contact you.

Regards,

Kevin
