What is NGN
Next Generation Network (NGN) is a service-oriented network. Through the separation of service and call control, as well as call control and bearer, the service-independent architecture is implemented, which makes services independent of network. NGN is a kind of open and integrated network architecture. NGN is a kind of brand-new network integrating voice, data, fax, and video services.
Characteristics of NGN
Characteristics of Next Generation Network: Open and distributed network architecture NGN adopts the hierarchical architecture, which is divided into media access layer, transport layer, control layer and service/application layer. Independent network control layer Internetworking and gateways NGN is based on standard protocols and packet switching network.

Introduction
control layer of NGN scheme.
SoftX3000 acts as a generic Call Controller in the packetswitched network, supports the interworking between PSTN, H.323, SIP, and MGCP domains.
SoftX3000 provides H.248 and MGCP based bearer control. In the NGN solution of Huawei, SoftX3000 acts as the core of NGN, interworking with other NGN components through the open network adopting distributed standard protocols.

Summary
NGN is divided into four layers: access layer, transport layer, control layer and service layer. NGN is the four-layer hierarchical network based on packet switching and transmission. Interworking between different layers is realized via open standard protocols, which provides NGN with considerable advantages and flexibility. Located at the control layer of NGN, SoftX3000 is the core control equipment in NGN for information interchange. It is used to control the communication of various MGWs. The transmission and interchange of information streams between MGWs do not fall into the control of SoftX3000. It is under the control of transport layer instead.
