A system for hierarchical scanning includes an interface and a processor. The interface is to receive an indication to scan using a payload; provide the payload to a set of addresses on a set of ports; and receive a set of responses. Each response is associated with an address and a port. The processor is to: for each response of the set of responses: determine whether a follow-up probe exists associated with the response; and in the event the follow-up probe exists associated with the response: execute the follow-up probe on the address and the port associated with the response; and store the set of data received in response to the follow-up probe in a database.

A computer includes a WAN driver that causes data to be transmitted from a guest domain to a computer to use a first protocol, a WANonTCP/IP driver and a TCP/IP driver that add identification information of the guest domain to the data and cause the data to use a second protocol, and a LAN driver that transmits the data to the line accommodation apparatus using the second protocol. The line accommodation apparatus includes a line GW control unit that acquires the identification information of the guest domain from the data, extracts a line card corresponding to the identification information, and causes the received data to use a third protocol; a line card driver that transmits the data to the computer via the extracted line card using the third protocol.

Example implementations relate to hard zoning capabilities for devices using Internet small computer system interface (iSCSI) protocol. For example, a method includes creating a virtual local area network (VLAN) at an Ethernet switch between an initiator and target adapter. The method includes assigning an access control list (ACL) to the VLAN. The method includes segregating a device of a plurality of devices connected to the SAN into a zone group. The method also includes controlling access of a zone group based on the ACL and frame filtering.

The present technology relates to a transmission apparatus, a transmission method, a reception apparatus, and a reception method that enable channel selection information and time information to be transmitted effectively.

A transmission apparatus acquires channel selection information for selecting a service and time information used for synchronizations on a transmission side and a reception side, generates, as a physical layer frame constituted of a preamble and a data portion, the physical layer frame in which specific information including at least one of the channel selection information and the time information is arranged at a head of the data portion right after the preamble, and transmits the physical layer frame as digital broadcast signals. The present technology is applicable to IP packet broadcasting, for example.

A TCP communication scheme which ensures safe communication up to the communication path near a terminal and eliminates direct attacks from hackers, etc. A terminal (A) and terminal (B) are connected to a relay apparatus (X) and relay apparatus (Y), where the terminal (A) and the terminal (B) are the endpoint terminals positioned at the two ends of a TCP communication connection. The relay apparatuses (X, Y) are each connected to a network (NET). The relay apparatuses (X and Y) are provided so as to be between the terminals (A and B) which had been performing conventional TCP communication, and neither of the relay apparatuses (X and Y) have IP addresses. The relay apparatuses (X and Y) take over the TCP connection between the terminal (A) and the terminal (B), divide the connection into three TCP connections, and establish TCP communication.

Embodiments are directed towards improving the performance of network traffic management devices by optimizing the management of hot connection flows. A packet traffic management device (“PTMD”) may employ a data flow segment (“DFS”) and control segment (“CS”). The CS may perform high-level control functions and per-flow policy enforcement for connection flows maintained at the DFS, while the DFS may perform statistics gathering, per-packet policy enforcement (e.g., packet address translations), or the like, on connection flows maintained at the DFS. The DFS may include high-speed flow caches and other high-speed components that may be comprised of high-performance computer memory. Making efficient use of the high speed flow cache capacity may be improved by maximizing the number of hot connection flows and minimizing the number of malicious and/or in-operative connections flows (e.g., non-genuine flows) that may have flow control data stored in the high-speed flow cache.

A facsimile apparatus includes a determination unit configured to determine whether a transmission destination is a gateway that uses a protocol for performing fax communication in real time on the IP network, and a control unit configured to perform control, if the determination unit determines that the transmission destination is a gateway apparatus, to transmit a packet of a smaller size and add a smaller number of redundant packets compared to when the transmission destination is not a gateway apparatus.

A broadcast signal transmission method comprises outputting an RoHC channel that includes one or more RoHC streams and a signaling table that includes information related to header compression by performing header compression for Internet Protocol (IP) packets, which include broadcast data, in accordance with an adaptation mode, a header of each IP packet including an IP header and a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) header, generating at least one first link layer packet that includes the RoHC channel and generating at least one second link layer packet that includes the signaling table, and physical layer processing the at least one first link layer packet and the at least one second link layer packet and transmitting through one or more Physical Layer Pipes (PLPs), wherein the signaling table includes adaptation mode information indicating the adaptation mode, and each RoHC stream in the RoHC channel includes RoHC packets.

A method of monitoring traffic by a router acting as a gateway between a first and second network is described. The router can receive data packets sent from the first device over the TCP connection and can send a TCP ACK packet to the first device in response to each data packet. The data packets can be stored without sending them to the second device. The stored data packets can be examined in order to determine whether to block or allow the TCP connection. In the event that it is determined to allow the TCP connection, the router can send each of the stored data packets to the second device. In the event that it is determined to block the TCP connection, the router can send a TCP RST message to each of the first and second devices in order to close the TCP connection.

A system having scalable sockets to support User Datagram Protocol (UDP) connections identifies a plurality of UDP connections, wherein a plurality of remote clients connect to corresponding ones of the plurality of UDP connections. Each one of a plurality of UDP sockets is associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of UDP connections. A network stack lookup for UDP packets in network traffic is performed using a network stack to identify the UDP socket corresponding to the remote client associated with each of the UDP packet. The UDP packets are buffered with a send buffer and a receive buffer for the UDP socket corresponding to the remote client associated with the UDP packets as determined by the network stack lookup to support communication over the plurality of UDP connections using the plurality of UDP sockets. The system thereby operates more efficiently and/or is more scalable.
