Information is removed from data transmitted over networks and stored in data storage facilities by generating non-informational data as an output from a series of nodes (routers, computing devices or logical routing applications) by using a function that applies random data to the data received at each node. The function may be an XOR and the random data may be a pseudorandom string of the same length as the informational data. The non-informational data may be managed normally without concern for security. When the informational data is needed it can be re-generated using the non-informational data and a cascade of the random data from the series of nodes as inputs to an inverse function (XOR is its own inverse). The random data may be generated from a smaller random seed.

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Embodiments herein provide a method for performing a routing ID (RID) update in user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network.

A data transmission method, a node, and a system, the method including receiving, by a forwarding node, a data packet, where a label stack of the data packet comprises a path identifier (path-ID), where the path-ID is an identifier of a constrained path, and where the constrained path is a path that consists of at least two nodes arranged in a specific order, determining, by the forwarding node, that the forwarding node is a node on the constrained path, selecting, by the forwarding node, a target label/target address from a local available label block/address block according to the path-ID and according to a preset rule, where the label block/address block comprises at least one label/address, searching for, by the forwarding node, a corresponding target interface according to the target label/target address, and forwarding, by the forwarding node, the data packet through the target interface.

The field of the disclosure is the transfer of digital data, particularly multimedia data, from a source to a user of that data using multiple data carrying paths/links/channels.

A network monitoring device may receive flow-tap information that identifies a traffic flow characteristic and a signed URL associated with a signed URL platform from a mediation device. The network device may map the traffic flow characteristic to the signed URL in an entry of a flow-tap filter that is maintained within a data structure of the network device. The network device may analyze, using the flow-tap filter, network traffic of the network to detect a traffic flow that is associated with the traffic flow characteristic. The network device may generate, based on detecting the traffic flow in the network traffic, a traffic flow copy that is associated with the traffic flow. The network device may provide, based on the signed URL, the traffic flow copy to the signed URL platform, wherein the traffic flow copy is to be accessible to an authorized user device via the signed URL.

A system and method are disclosed for enabling interoperability between asymmetric and symmetric Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) modes. A system is configured to receive a route advertisement, examine the label fields of the route advertisement, and determine whether Layer 2 or Layer 3 information is conveyed. The system is further configured to build a route advertisement to advertise to a second device based on whether Layer 2 or Layer 3 information is conveyed in the first route advertisement.

A packet loss processing method and a network device are provided. The method includes: A first node obtains a first forwarding label of a first packet, where the first packet is a discarded packet. The first node determines, based on the first forwarding label, that the first node does not have a LSP corresponding to the first forwarding label. The first node sends a first message to a second node, where the first message includes the first forwarding label, and the first message is used to indicate that the first node does not have the LSP corresponding to the first forwarding label. The second node may be, for example, a peer node of the first node. The first node sends the message to the peer node, to indicate that the first node does not have the LSP corresponding to the forwarding label.

Some embodiments provide a method for performing deep packet inspection (DPI) for an SD-WAN (software defined, wide area network) established for an entity by a plurality of edge nodes and a set of one or more cloud gateways. At a particular edge node, the method uses local and remote deep packet inspectors to perform DPI for a packet flow. Specifically, the method initially uses the local deep packet inspector to perform a first DPI operation on a set of packets of a first packet flow to generate a set of DPI parameters for the first packet flow. The method then forwards a copy of the set of packets to the remote deep packet inspector to perform a second DPI operation to generate a second set of DPI parameters. In some embodiments, the remote deep packet inspector is accessible by a controller cluster that configures the edge nodes and the gateways. In some such embodiments, the method forwards the copy of the set of packets to the controller cluster, which then uses the remote deep packet inspector to perform the remote DPI operation. The method receives the result of the second DPI operation, and when the generated first and second DPI parameters are different, generates a record regarding the difference.

The present disclosure relates to a system for managing a switchboard using a ring network, including a plurality of switchboards for forming at least one group, a switch for forming a ring network with the plurality of switchboards to receive operation information related to an operation of a device provided in each switchboard from at least one switchboard among the plurality of switchboards, and a monitoring server for receiving the operation information, and it can be applied to other exemplary embodiments.
