System, computer program, computer-readable medium and method for providing a redundant relay, particularly a routing function
A system, computer program, computer-readable medium and method for providing a redundant relay, particularly routing function in a network, wherein a superordinate subnetwork is connected to a subordinate subnetwork via redundant relays, particularly routers, a maximum of one of the redundant relays is operated in an active mode at any one time, while the remaining relay(s) are in standby mode, each redundant relay forms a relay redundancy module for controlling the relay mode and a DHCPv6 client for processing a prefix delegation, particularly in accordance with RFC 3633, and the redundant relays each include a relay control module, to which the relay redundancy module of the particular relay signals the current relay mode, and the relay control module of the active relay synchronizes a virtual DUID of its DHCPv6 client and/or a prefix delegated to the active relay to the (or each) relay in standby mode.
Identification of network issues by correlation of cross-platform performance data
A data intake and query system collects performance data from client devices and host devices and stores the performance data in one or more indexes. The system is further configured to facilitate correlation of the performance data collected from the client devices and the separate performance data collected from the host devices. For example, based on a determination that one or more identifiers stored in a portion of performance data received from client devices match one or more identifiers stored in a portion of the performance data received from host devices, a data intake and query may determine that the data portions are related. The portions of performance data, for example, may correspond to events the data intake and query system derives from the performance data collected from both client devices and host devices.
Ceph Media Failure and Remediation
A server includes a processor and a non-transitory machine-readable medium. The medium includes instructions. The instructions, when loaded and executed by the processor, cause the processor to obtain software defined storage (SDS) performance data from a plurality of media servers, process the SDS performance data, and determine whether the SDS performance data indicates that a first media server includes a potentially failing storage medium.
Method and apparatus for transmitting data in IoT system, and gateway device and storage medium thereof
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for transmitting data in an IoT system. The method includes: determining a data type of device data sent by an IoT device when a connection between a gateway device and a server is abnormal; storing device data of a real-time data type into a first message queue of a message-oriented middleware, and storing device data of a historical data type into a second message queue of the message-oriented middleware; transmuting the device data in the first message queue to a server over a first MQTT channel and transmitting the device data in the second message queue to the server over a second MQTT channel when the connection resumes to a normal state.
System and method for callback management with alternate site routing and callback pacing
A system and method for optimizing callback times to increase the success rate of callbacks while managing overflow of calls to alternate sites when callbacks are unsuccessful. The system and method use a pacing algorithm to determine when callbacks are likely to be successful from a preferred contact site, routing to alternate callback sites when callbacks are unsuccessful, and preferences for re-routing back to the preferred site when a callback is successful and the agent with whom the caller has interacted previously is available.
Assisted delivery service for networks
Systems and methods are provided for switching computing devices between edge servers and peer groups. One example method includes receiving, at a client computing device and from a first computing device, media content. A request to initiate an assisted delivery service is sent from the client computing device to a second computing device. The assisted delivery service is initiated in response to the request. The assisted delivery service comprises identifying, at the second computing device, one or more peer computing devices receiving the media content. At the second computing device, instructions that enable the client computing device to discover at least one of the peer computing devices are generated. The instructions are sent from the second computing device to the client computing device. At the client computing device, a peer computing device is discovered. A request to receive a portion of the media content is sent from the client computing device to a discovered peer computing device. The portion of the media content is received at the client computing device from the peer computing device.
Session initiated protocol (SIP) session establishment with a home subscriber server (HSS) outage
Systems may establish a Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) session during a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) outage. The systems may include Network Functions (NF) that perform steps for establishing the SIP session and/or bypassing the HSS experiencing the outage. For instance, an Interrogating (I)-Call Session Control Function (CSCF) may modify a terminating message received from a User Equipment (UE) to generate a modified terminating message, and send one or more instances (e.g., forks) of the modified terminating message to one or more candidate Serving (S)-CSCFs. A particular S-CSCF of the candidate S-CSCFs may comprise the registered S-CSCF and may respond to an instance of the modified terminating message. In some embodiments, the I-CSCF may establish the SIP session by sending an instance of the modified terminating message to a designated S-CSCF. The designated S-CSCF may determine which candidate S-CSCF comprises the registered S-CSCF, for instance, by querying the candidate S-CSCFs.
Remote Radio Unit with Adaptive Fronthaul Link for a Distributed Radio Access Network
A distributed radio frequency communication system facilitates communication between a wireless terminal and a core network. The system includes a remote radio unit (RRU) coupled to at least one antenna to communicate with the wireless terminal. The RRU includes electronic circuitry to perform at least a first portion of a first-level protocol of a radio access network (RAN) for communicating between the wireless terminal and the core network. The system also includes a baseband unit (BBU) coupled to the core network, and configured to perform at least a second-level protocol of the RAN. A fronthaul link is coupled to the BBU and the RRU. The fronthaul link utilizes an adaptive fronthaul protocol for communication between the BBU and the RRU. The adaptive fronthaul protocol has provisions for adapting to conditions of the fronthaul link and radio network by changing the way data is communicated over the fronthaul link.
Rebuilding Data Slices in a Storage Network Based on Priority
A distributed storage integrity system in a dispersed storage network includes a scanning agent and a control unit. The scanning agent identifies an encoded data slice that requires rebuilding, wherein the encoded data slice is one of a plurality of encoded data slices generated from a data segment using an error encoding dispersal function. The control unit retrieves at least a number T of encoded data slices needed to reconstruct the data segment based on the error encoding dispersal function. The control unit is operable to reconstruct the data segment from at least the number T of the encoded data slices and generate a rebuilt encoded data slice from the reconstructed data segment. The scanning agent is located in a storage unit and the control unit is located in the storage unit or in a storage integrity processing unit, a dispersed storage processing unit or a dispersed storage managing unit.
