OneLayer Bridge Live Demo

The OneLayer Bridge live demo illustrates the transition from the garbled view of a traditional cellular core--filled with 15-digit IMSI and IMEI identifiers--to a device-aware management platform. Without OneLayer, administrators are forced to manage critical infrastructure through abstract numbers, making the activation or deactivation of SIM cards a high-risk manual task. OneLayer replaces this with a zoomed-out, user-friendly interface that identifies devices by their actual function and model, such as GE Orbit routers or Sierra Wireless modems. By combining data from the cellular core with direct router integrations via SNMP and SSH, the platform provides a detailed triad of identifiers: the subscriber (IMSI), the SIM card (ICCID), and the hardware (IMEI), alongside historical logs and real-time signal data.

One of the standout features showcased in the demo is the platform's ability to maintain a historical and topological view of the network, which standard cellular cores often lack. The topology view serves as a critical troubleshooting tool, allowing operators to see if specific radios are underserved or overloaded compared to neighboring cells. Furthermore, the platform bridges the black box of the cellular router by identifying non-cellular devices connected behind it, such as PLCs or laptops, and tracking their movement or MAC address shifts over time. While the cellular information is provided in near real-time via event-based data from the core, the platform periodically polls connected hardware to ensure the inventory of the entire network "behind the SIM" remains accurate.

The final segment of the demo highlights actionable insights and behavioral analysis, focusing on security outcomes like geofencing and anomaly detection. OneLayer can detect and alert on unauthorized SIM swaps, unusual data spikes that deviate from a device's baseline communication patterns, or the appearance of hardware from unpermitted manufacturers like Huawei. These events are not just logged but can be pushed to an enterprise's SIEM or used to dynamically update firewall policies. Regarding the role of AI, the speakers noted that while their mission-critical clientele is generally conservative, OneLayer is leveraging large language models in proofs of concept to translate massive streams of raw logging data into clear operational insights, such as identifying devices that are failing to attach or flopping between cells too frequently.
