F5 Distributed Cloud Platform for F5s CGNAT (Carrier-grade NAT) CNFs

SPs have multiple pain points to address, and they’re looking for solutions that can reduce network costs. CapEx and OpEx continue to rise, especially with the availability of “all you can eat,” high-speed bandwidth. Service providers need scalable and automated functions. With microservices, the environment can be configured to automatically add and remove virtual server instances as system loads change. Security is always of paramount importance. Maintaining and improving network security is critical not only because of the increasing threat surface, but also the larger, more complex attacks that target the network. CG NAT is one of F5's new CNFs, specifically architected for service providers moving to a cloud native infrastructure. This demo will show the simple process of deploying an instance of CGNAT CNF, and we'll be deploying the CNF on the F5 distributed cloud app stack platform.
