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.

A transmission apparatus that includes circuitry configured to generate transport protocol selection information used for selecting a transport protocol to be used in a specific service from a plurality of transport protocols conforming to a predetermined standard; and transmit, together with the transport protocol selection information, a content provided by the specific service according to the transport protocol set in the transport protocol selection information, and the plurality of transport protocols include at least ROUTE (Real-Time Object Delivery over Unidirectional Transport) and MMT (MPEG Media Transport).

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 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.

In an example, a first Internet Protocol (IP) address is assigned to a first service. The first service includes a plurality of pods and is to operate on a first port. A first node on which the first IP address is to be configured is selected from among a plurality of nodes based on a number of IP addresses configured on each of the plurality of nodes. Further, the first IP address is configured on the first node. The first IP address is assigned to a second service as well. The second service comprises a plurality of pods and is to operate on a second port.

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.

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 source proxy for transmitting one or more TCP packets sent from a source device to a destination device over a wireless link is provided. Each TCP packet comprises a TCP data section and a TCP packet header. The source proxy is located on the wireless link and is configured to: receive the one or more TCP packets; determine a simple compression mode packet from the one or more TCP packets by removing the TCP packet header comprised in each TCP packet, the simple compression mode packet comprising the TCP data sections comprised in the one or more TCP packets and a header that comprises a connection identifier, and send the simple compression mode packet to a destination proxy located on the wireless link, the destination proxy being configured to: receive the simple compression mode packet and acknowledge reception to the source proxy; determine one or more reconstructed TCP packets by extracting the data sections of each TCP packet from the simple compression mode packet, and send the one or more reconstructed TCP packets to the destination device.

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.

Modular industrial automation device and method for configuring a modular industrial automation device, wherein in order to configure the modular industrial automation device which includes a central unit and at least one communication module which each comprise a router module and a routing configuration unit, the routing configuration units transmit routing information stored in their routing table to routing configuration units of other router modules, and the routing configuration units update their respective routing table based on routing information which is received from routing configuration units of other router modules and relates to routes to IPv4 subnetworks assigned to other router modules, a default gateway and a connection between the associated router module and a backplane bus system.
