Managed Home Network (MHN)

It’s no surprise that the amount of smart devices we rely on at home is continuing to grow. Managing these devices can become difficult without a single pane of glass view into what’s connected to your home network. With MHN, home owners and network providers can easily manage IoT devices, set policies, configure the network, and add new services – all in one place. MHN offers a simple, comprehensive way to control your networks.

With MHN, your residential subscribers can not only have access to high performing networks, but they also are empowered to have control over their home networks. Whether it’s setting time restrictions with parental controls, blocking certain devices with device management, securing their home network, or leveraging media sharing and LAN-mode gaming, MHN caters to the modern residential subscriber without requiring massive overhauls from service providers.

Set-up profiles for every person within a home environment and grant permission to change network settings, parental controls, or content filtering. Plus, with the ‘follow-me’ feature any policies you set can be applied when connected to the home network and roaming outside of the home network – meaning any parental controls that subscribers may set or  Quality of Service policies (QoS) set by the provider, can be applied even outside of the home.

MHN offers IoT device fingerprinting, policing and security, Security as a service (virtual Firewall), Network-based controls (e.g.: parental control, advanced security at device fidelity, etc.),Device management (e.g.: onboarding, QoS/QoE settings per device set by home admin.), On-demand bandwidth upgrade, Clientless cloud storage, Media Sharing and LAN-mode Gaming, Analytics and instrumentation, and a unified service control portal.

MHN enables service providers to easily create new services and applications at a fraction of the cost, while also reducing the time to market from several months to a few days. Since the platform is multi-functional – growing the service catalogue requires no development spend, just annual subscription costs for every user so service providers only pay when they profit. The platform is API-led and openly programmable so service providers can quickly create services and applications that are compelling and profitable.
