METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING NETWORK-TO-NETWORK INTERCONNECTION

This disclosure describes methods and systems to externally manage network-to-network interconnect configuration data in conjunction with a centralized database subsystem. An example of the methods includes receiving and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, data indicative of user intent to interconnect at least a first network and a second network. The example method further includes, based at least in part on the data indicative of user intent, determining and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, a network intent that corresponds to the user intent. The example method further includes providing data indicative of the network intent from the centralized database subsystem to a first data plane adaptor, associated with the first network, and a second data plane adaptor, associated with the second network.

Service distribution method, device and system

A service distribution method includes the steps of: firstly generating, by a management system, a corresponding configuration file from service information of a user, and sending the configuration file to an Optical Network Termination (ONT) of the user through an Optical Line Terminal (OLT); and then performing, by the ONT, corresponding configuration in accordance with the configuration file. A service distribution system and a management system are provided. The invention is applied to enable service distribution with good extendibility.

Packet data unit (PDU) structure for supporting distributed relay control protocol (DRCP)

A method supporting distributed resilient network interconnect (DRNI) in a link aggregation group at a network device is disclosed. The method starts with encapsulating a distributed relay control protocol data unit (DRCPDU) in a frame, wherein the DRCPDU includes a protocol data unit (PDU) structure. The PDU structure includes a type field indicating that the DRCPDU is for DRCP, a version field indicating a version number of the DRCP, and a set of type/length/values (TLVs) including: a terminator TLV indicating an end of the PDU structure, a portal information TLV indicating characteristics of the first portal, a portal configuration information TLV indicating configuration information of the first portal, a DRCP state TLV indicating variables associated with an intra-portal link (IPP), a home ports information TLV and a neighbor ports information TLV. The method continues with transmitting the frame encapsulating the DRCPDU from the network device to a neighbor network device.

11032169 · 2021-06-08 · ·

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for routing event data from cloud-based sources to various service providers without using a permanently dedicated server (or similar solution). The solution disclosed herein is source agnostic, meaning that the data being received can be from any provider of cloud-based data, with the data received being in a format specific to the given provider. The system can normalize the data from the respective sources into a common format based on properties on the data and, based on the normalized data, identify what type of analysis, process, or other service should be executed on data received. The system can then forward the data to respective service providers for the execution of those services.

Automated configuration of machine-to-machine systems

A gateway is provided with configuration management logic to identify a set of configurations corresponding to a deployment of a particular application, and automatically send corresponding configuration data to a set of devices in range of the gateway. Service management logic of the gateway determines that assets on the set of devices correspond to one or more asset abstractions defined for the particular application, where the configuration data is sent to the set of devices based on the assets corresponding to the asset abstractions. Sensor data is received during the deployment as generated by a sensor asset of one of the devices, the sensor data is processed according to service logic of the particular application to generate a result, and actuating data is generated and sent during the deployment to an actuator asset on the set of devices based on the result.

Web page manipulation

Examples relate to manipulating web pages. In one example, a computing device may: receive a web page that includes application instructions for modifying objects included in the web page; execute the application instructions; record, in an ordered list of changes, change data for each application object that is modified, created, or destroyed during execution of the application instructions; record, in the ordered list of changes, change data for each web page object that is modified, created, or destroyed during execution of the application instructions; identify, in the ordered list of changes, a transition point between recorded changes; receive a request to change a state of the web page to the transition point; and apply, in reverse order, an inverse of each change specified in the ordered list of changes from a current point in time until the transition point.

DISCOVERING A COMPUTER NETWORK TOPOLOGY FOR AN EXECUTING APPLICATION
20210135948 · 2021-05-06 ·

There are disclosed devices, system and methods for continual automated discovering of a topology of a computer network of physical network objects for an application. A first physical network object selects portions of sets of data messages being sent over time by the application and related network objects; and collects network configuration and time dimension information, and timeseries information from the portions of messages. A second physical network object receives the information and uses it to determine topology information for the application over time, which includes unique keys of, types of objects of, types of relationships between pairs of, groupings of, time dimension data of and metrics data of the physical network objects. The topology information can be stored; and can be queried to create and display a graph representation of the topology information that changes over time.

User defined objects for network devices

Provided are systems and methods for configuring a network servicing node with user-defined instruction scripts. A method for configuring a network servicing node with user-defined instruction scripts may commence with receiving, from a user of the network servicing node, a user loadable program. The user loadable program may include at least the user-defined instruction scripts. The method may continue with receiving a data packet from a data network associated with the user. The method may further include determining a condition associated with the data packet. The method may continue with identifying, in a name table, a program name associated with a program using the condition. The program may be the user loadable program. The method may further include processing the data packet by getting an instruction of the user-defined instruction scripts from a storage module and applying the instruction to the data packet.
