Bison Network Infrastructure
Build a Faster
ISP Edge.
High-performance virtual BNG and routing infrastructure designed for growing Internet Service Providers.
Bison brings carrier-grade packet processing to standard x86 servers using a DPDK-powered architecture. Deploy Bison vBNG for subscriber termination and Bison vRouter for high-throughput routing without being locked into expensive proprietary hardware.
DPDK Powered
Multi-core packet processing dataplane.
Built for x86 Servers
Commodity hardware, no proprietary lock-in.
Designed for ISP Scale
From thousands to tens of thousands of subscribers.
Bison vBNG
Subscriber edge infrastructure built for scale. Bison vBNG is a software-based Broadband Network Gateway designed to handle ISP subscriber termination and subscriber traffic on high-performance x86 infrastructure.
- PPPoE subscriber termination on Bison infrastructure
- RADIUS AAA — authentication, authorization, accounting
- DPDK-based multi-core packet processing
- CGNAT-ready subscriber edge
- Subscriber accounting visibility
- Runs on commodity x86 servers
Bison vRouter
High-performance software routing for ISP networks. Bison vRouter provides a software-defined routing platform for ISP edge, core and datacenter networking environments.
- High-throughput software routing
- Multi-core packet processing
- Flexible interface architecture
- ISP edge routing
- Datacenter routing
- Software-based x86 deployment
Use Bison vRouter independently or alongside Bison vBNG to build a software-defined ISP networking stack.
Deployment Architecture
A software-defined edge that slots into your existing network. Traffic enters through Bison vRouter, terminates on Bison vBNG, and flows to your access network.
Internet / Upstream Providers
Transit + peering uplinks

Network Operations
Standard NOC workflows.
Built for ISPs that have outgrown entry-level networking.
Bison is sized for operators whose subscriber base and traffic have moved past entry-level routing.
Growing Broadband ISPs
Networks moving from hundreds to thousands of subscribers.
Multi-POP Networks
Operators managing subscriber traffic across multiple locations.
High PPPoE Density
ISPs handling large numbers of concurrent subscriber sessions.
Networks Replacing Hardware Bottlenecks
Operators looking for a software-based alternative to continually upgrading proprietary routing appliances.
Deployment pricing based on your network.
Bison deployments are sized according to subscriber volume, traffic requirements, network topology and required infrastructure.
Talk to our team for volume pricing and deployment planning.
High-volume ISP deployments may qualify for custom commercial pricing.
Upgrade without rebuilding your entire ISP.
Bison is designed to integrate into existing ISP environments. Existing subscriber management, RADIUS workflows and access infrastructure can remain part of the architecture while the network edge is upgraded.
Network Assessment
Review subscriber count, traffic, current routers, uplinks and RADIUS environment.
Deployment Plan
Design the Bison vBNG and/or Bison vRouter topology.
Controlled Migration
Move traffic or subscriber termination in planned stages.
