Deployment Options
VNF (Virtual Network Function)
On top of x86 servers and hypervisor
VPP / FD.io Plugin
vCGNAT is purpose-built for virtualized and cloud environments. An integration with any VNF Manager and NFV Orchestration is always smooth and completed within a short time frame.vCGNAT is officially Open Source MANO (OSM) compatible Virtual Network Function.
The vCGNAT VM instance can be deployed on a standard x86 COTS server with a standard server operating system (CentOS/Ubuntu). For this option, it is required to use a Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor.
Although VPP offers its standard open source Network Address Translation solution, there is limited functionality and a lack of performance. NFWare vCGNAT brings all its values and features to the VPP space and could be provided as a VPP-plugin, ready to be installed to the current VPP infrastructure.
What's being said
Sappa
When we went looking for a new CGNAT solution, we switched from a system that had very defined user caps. This fixed capacity limitation was impeding our customer satisfaction and we replaced it with NFWare virtualized CGNAT that can scale easily to support more users.

NFWare Virtual CGNAT allows us to expand our ADSL customer base without the need for additional IPv4 address space from APNIC and the reallocation/repurposing of existing IPv4 address space.
NFWare have been great to work with all round, they have a very competitively priced CGNAT solution with excellent performance that's been easy to test and then deploy in production. It's a relatively simple and so far, very reliable platform that takes very little overhead for our NOC team to maintain. Overall we're very impressed.
