NexGen designs, deploys, and assures service-provider and enterprise networks — from FTTH access to the IP core — and builds the automation that makes every rollout repeatable and verifiable.
NexGen works where design decisions meet live traffic. We take on the parts of the network most teams would rather hand to a specialist — the broadband edge, transport, automation, and secure connectivity — and we stay on to support them.
Service-provider and enterprise network design done to production standard: broadband edge (BNG), FTTH/PPPoE and IPoE access, IP/MPLS core, and subscriber management on Cisco IOS-XR — sized for scale and documented so your team can own it.
Turning a validated design into a repeatable, verifiable rollout. Cisco NSO service models, NETCONF/YANG, RADIUS/AAA integration, and Python tooling that removes hand-configured drift and makes provisioning consistent from the first site to the thousandth.
MEF-aligned Ethernet services — E-Line, EPL and EVPL — designed, provisioned, and activated over carrier transport. We handle service OAM, activation, and the operational detail that decides whether a service passes acceptance the first time.
Encrypted transport and access built on standards, not appliances-by-default. Site-to-site and remote-access VPN with IKEv2 and FlexVPN, network segmentation, and hardening of routing and edge platforms so security is part of the design rather than bolted on after.
A design is only proven when the numbers back it up. We run Y.1564 service activation testing, SIT/UAT validation, and structured fault isolation — then stay on for design-and-support engagements so the network keeps performing after handover. When something breaks at 2am, you have someone who already knows the topology.
This is hands-on, production-grade experience — the platforms, protocols, and standards behind large-scale broadband and carrier Ethernet networks.
NexGen is founder-led. Behind it is a double-CCIE network and automation architect with 17+ years building, automating, and assuring networks for some of Europe's largest operators, a global stock exchange, and Cisco itself.
Led Cisco NSO network automation at the London Stock Exchange Group, managing a team of four senior developers delivering service automation for mission-critical infrastructure.
Engineered the core of a national operator's B2B network — the routing and edge that carry business-critical traffic for thousands of enterprises.
Built NSO- and Itential-based automation for Liberty Global and major Cisco service-provider customers, and contributed to BT's automated core via Juniper — spanning EVPN provisioning, zero-touch cell-site rollout, and large-scale security-policy automation.
Delivered MEF-standard Carrier Ethernet (E-Line / EPL) over Ciena, Juniper MX and Cisco ASR9K across seven European countries — including the automation to provision it.
NexGen is founder-led by Abdulrahman el Anazi — a double-CCIE network and automation architect (CCIE #27855, Routing & Switching and Service Provider) with 17+ years designing, automating, and assuring large-scale networks.
That experience runs from the core B2B IP network of a national operator to leading Cisco NSO automation at the London Stock Exchange Group, with senior roles at Liberty Global, Cisco, Juniper and KPN along the way. The common thread is multi-vendor networks — Cisco, Juniper, Ciena — at carrier and enterprise scale, and the automation that keeps them consistent.
You work directly with that engineer, not a sales layer. We design it, we prove it, and we support it. Based in the UAE with roots in the Netherlands, NexGen delivers across the Middle East and Europe in English, Dutch and Arabic.
