IP networks have transported traffic without regard to the content they are carrying. But with the explosion in next-generation services that rely on an IP network for access and delivery, service providers see an opportunity to gain new revenue sources based on their unique position as providers of both services and the underlying network. To maximize this opportunity, operators need to understand more about the content of the traffic on their networks, not only at the packet level but also at the much higher application level. This paper looks at Application-Oriented Networking (AON), a new technology that lets operators reassemble application messages from the packets passing over their networks and use that message content to support delivery of next-generation services.
