Service Providers Utilize Address Translation for Ongoing Business Continuity

With the exponential growth of subscribers and connected devices, service providers have been investing in infrastructure to support increasing traffic growth while implementing new services to attract new subscribers and increase revenue.

Preparing for the Internet of Things (IoT) is also contributing to the demand on the infrastructure and the number of devices connected to the network. With the global exhaustion of free pools of IPv4 addresses and the continuing adoption of IPv6, service providers are facing new challenges in sustaining growth and business continuity.
