- Metaswitch Perimeta
- Oracle Acme Packet
- And any other system that supports ATIS-1000082.

Deployment options

The NexOSS Centralized SHAKEN Server can be integrated with a softswitch or policy engine at the center of a network or with Session Border Controllers (SBCs) at the network edge.

Centralized deployment

Host server requirements

Any virtual or bare metal host server running Red Hat or CentOS 7
RAM 8–16 GB depending on configuration
Host server sizing guidelines per CPU core and 1 GHz clock speed (50% CPU utilization):
- Authentication: 55 calls per second signed, PASSporT created
  - For example, a host server with four 3 GHz cores running at 50% CPU utilization would authenticate and sign 660 calls per second (55 × 4 × 3 = 660).
- Verification: 37 calls per second, PASSporT verified
  - For example, a host server with four 3 GHz cores running at 50% CPU utilization would verify 444 calls per second (37 × 4 × 3 = 444).
Minimal disk requirements
