Wind River Advanced Networking Technologies provides advanced
networking protocols, security, wireless, and mobility capabilities for markets
such as wireless infrastructure, network infrastructure, and consumer devices.
Advanced Networking Technology is a collection of networking protocols
based on the IPNET stack designed by the company formerly known as Interpeak.
The stack was designed to be scaleable and portable.
The Wind River Advanced Networking
Technologies portfolio is available for both Wind River VxWorks and Wind River
Linux platforms. This allows developers to build application software that can
move easily from project to project, regardless of the underlying operating systems.
This flexibility maximizes developer efficiency and enables the reuse of
valuable intellectual property. The Wind River Advanced Networking
Technologies portfolio provides the following:
The Wind River Advanced Networking Technologies are imbedded in Wind
River VxWorks Platforms. It is also available as an add-on (i.e., a replacement
for the native Linux stack) to Wind River Linux Platforms 1.4 through 3.0. The
primary motivation for replacing the native stack is protection of intellectual
property. Developers who customize protocols or features of the native Linux
network stack are required under GPL to make these customizations available to
the open-source community. By using Wind River Advanced Networking
Technologies, they can avoid these obligations and keep their intellectual
property as differentiable value.
