Blueprint 2: MSSP premises, no multitenancy

Blueprint 2: MSSP premises, no multitenancy

With the growing adoption of virtualized Telco Cloud environments in the recent years, another blueprint became popular. It is similar to Blueprint 1: MSSP premises, multitenant, but has one difference: the Hubs are not multitenant, but rather dedicated to a specific Customer. Indeed, when an MSSP has a Telco Cloud infrastructure on its premises, it becomes reasonable to delegate the multitenancy duties to this infrastructure.

Consequently, the Hubs in this blueprint are virtual (FortiGate VM).

The rest of the points discussed in Blueprint 1: MSSP premises, multitenant apply here too.
