OSE Systems and Future Software have announced "OSE-ready" versions of Future Software's IP routing and switching protocol stacks.

OSE Systems and Future Software have announced "OSE-ready" versions of Future Software's IP routing and switching protocol stacks Future Software and OSE Systems jointly will help accelerate the time to market for communications equipment vendors via the OSE real-time operating system's integrated protocol stacks

Customers will be able to select individual components from the Future Communications portfolio that have already been integrated with OSE.

OSE provides the foundations for network infrastructure equipment including high availability, fault tolerance and distributed processing while Future excels in providing industry standard network protocols.

Future Software has a wide range of protocol stacks which include OSPF, BGP, Multicast Routing (DVMRP and PIM), IPv6, NAT, Firewall, QoS, and MPLS.

In addition, Future Software offers WAN access protocols like PPP, Frame Relay and L2TP.

All the stacks are based on FSAP - Future Software Architecture for Portability - which separates the core protocol stack from the system environment, thus making the stacks highly scalable and portable.

All the stacks from Future Software have support for the appropriate standards, provide control and data plane separation, and support for distributed and fault tolerant architectures.

The stacks are manageable via SNMP, CLI or any other management interface via support for a comprehensive set of parameters based on standard MIBs.

The stacks are targeted towards communications equipment vendors in the internetworking, optical and wireless space.

In addition, the company provides porting and integration services for the protocol stacks on a turnkey basis.

"We see significant value in the communications marketplace in providing OSE-ready stacks, since OSE is a leading contender as the RTOS of choice with many communications equipment vendors", said N.

Muthukumaran, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at Future Software.

"I am very excited about this relationship since it pairs two strong partners, both of whom have been addressing the communications marketplace for over 15 years".
