A method, apparatus and device for determining a cluster network card, and a computer readable storage medium. The method comprises: reading a network segment of a Cluster IP from a configuration file of a current node; determining the type of the network segment of the Cluster IP by means of an address string in the network segment of the Cluster IP; obtaining an IP and a network card corresponding to the type of the network segment of the Cluster IP on the current node; and calculating the network segment of each IP, determining the IP corresponding to the network segment with the same address string as a Cluster IP, and determining the network card where the IP is located as a cluster network card. According to the disclosure, the IP corresponding to the network segment with the same address string in the network segments of the Cluster IP is determined as the Cluster IP, and the network card where the IP is located is determined as the cluster network card, so that the cluster network card can be automatically and accurately found according to the configuration file.

A network device may delegate a first prefix length to a primary WAN interface and delegate a second prefix length to a backup WAN interface. The network device may assign a first primary prefix and a first backup prefix to a first VLAN interface and may assign a second primary prefix and a second backup prefix to a second VLAN interface. The network device may provide egress traffic from host devices, connected to the first VLAN interface and to the second VLAN interface, to the primary WAN interface and without prefix translation, when the primary WAN interface is available. The network device may provide ingress traffic to the host devices, via the primary WAN interface and without prefix translation, when the primary WAN interface is available.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable program instructions executable by a processor of a relay device communicable with a terminal management device and one or more terminal devices. The program instructions are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the relay device to perform unicast communication with each terminal device, thereby obtaining at least one of a device name and a vendor name of each terminal device as determination information, determine, based on the determination information, whether each terminal device is a supported terminal device to be managed by the terminal management device, and perform unicast communication with one or more individual terminal devices each determined to be the supported terminal device, thereby obtaining terminal information from each supported terminal device, the terminal information regarding each supported terminal device being collected by the terminal management device via the relay device.

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for communications. In one aspect there is provided a method. The method may include sending, by a gateway, an advertisement including an internet protocol version 6 over low power wireless personal area network context option carrying a well-known prefix, the well-known prefix indicating to a node that the gateway provides an uplink in accordance with internet protocol version 4; and receiving, at the gateway, a first packet received via the wireless network in accordance with internet protocol version 6, the first packet including a destination address in accordance with internet protocol version 4. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

An embodiment of the present invention is directed to analyzing historical network capacity allocations, using machine learning to predict future capacity needs and automating network capacity management activities such as allocations and de-allocations.

Techniques are described for providing managed computer networks, such as for managed virtual computer networks overlaid on one or more other underlying computer networks. In some situations, the techniques include facilitating replication of a primary computing node that is actively participating in a managed computer network, such as by maintaining one or more other computing nodes in the managed computer network as replicas, and using such replica computing nodes in various manners. For example, a particular managed virtual computer network may span multiple broadcast domains of an underlying computer network, and a particular primary computing node and a corresponding remote replica computing node of the managed virtual computer network may be implemented in distinct broadcast domains of the underlying computer network, with the replica computing node being used to transparently replace the primary computing node in the virtual computer network if the primary computing node becomes unavailable.

A device may receive provisioning data identifying an application server and a user equipment. The device may provide a request for reachability data associated with the user equipment and may receive the reachability data. The device may cause a trigger for a packet and data identifying the application server to be provided to the user equipment. The device may receive, from the user equipment, the packet that includes a network address and a port identifier of a port of the user equipment. The device may provide, to a firewall associated with the application server, an identifier, the network address, and the port identifier. The device may cause, via the firewall, the reachability data, the network address, and the port identifier to be provided to the application server to enable the application server to provide data to the user equipment.

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include (1) provisioning a cloud gaming environment with a plurality of containers that share a single operating system instance, (2) allocating each container within the plurality of containers to a corresponding user, (3) executing, concurrently, within each container within the plurality of containers a corresponding video game instance and (4) streaming, concurrently, from the cloud gaming environment, a video game instance from each container within the plurality of containers to a corresponding client system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

One disclosure of the present specification provides a communication method related to a change of an application server performed by an SMF node. The method may comprise: a step for transmitting a notification message related to a change of a user plane path to an AF node; a step for receiving a response message from the AF node in response to the notification message; and a step for transmitting a message including information on an IP address of the changed application server to a terminal through an AMF node.

The disclosure provides an approach for eliminating issues associated with the use of an L2 extension and ARP calls after migrating a virtual machine from one host to another host. The approach involves placing nodes within a network within their own subnetworks, each subnetwork having an IP address range of one address. Placing nodes into subnets of one avoids intra-subnet forwarding, eliminating the need for ARP calls and for L2 extensions.
